Some, like Curry-Grilled Quail with Dried Grapes, Ginger, and Mint, or Spicy Sausage-Stuffed Trout with Hoisin Glaze and Sesame Crust, are upscale options for those times when you want to put on the Ritz a bit. Many others, like Smoke-Roasted Standing Rib Roast; Grilled Clams in Their Shells with Tabasco, Lemon, and Garlic; West Indian Grilled Chicken; or Grilled Asparagus with Parmesan Cheese, are easy as can be. But every one is packed with intense, deep, rich flavors and eating excitement. Here you'll also find not just recipes but entire strategies for cooking ribs, steaks, whole fish, corn on the cob, and other favorites; hobo packs to roast in the coals while you grill something else above the fire; and uniquely tasty beverages to keep you refreshed while you're grilling.
