""What a humorous and informative book! A true American roadhouse classic.""-Paul Kirk, Kansas City Baron of Barbecue

Where can you show up for world-class barbecue, stick around for the blues, and shut the place down waxing poetic with some pretty colorful characters? At the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, of course, the Syracuse-based honky-tonk rib joint known far and wide by bikers, blues musicians, and barbecue aficionados. This first-ever barbecue restaurant cookbook features more than 100 flavor-packed recipes, from starters through desserts, guaranteed to get your motor running.

Join the Spiceman, John Stage, and his co author, Nancy Radke, on a journey into the world of low and slow barbecue and fast and furious grillin'. In Dinosaur Bar-B-Que- An American Roadhouse, you'll learn the secrets to the Dinosaur's succulent pit-smoked specialties-like Dinosaur Bar-B-Que Ribs and Home-Style Pulled Pork-in recipes you can cook up in your own backyard. John also shows you how to take traditional BBQ sauce and rev it up to create tempting dishes you can make in a flash-

. Honky-Tonk Pot Roast

. Black & Blue Pan-Seared Beef Tenderloins

. Drunken Spicy Shameless Shrimp with Brazen Cocktail Sauce

. Grill-Smoked Salmon with ChileLime Booster Sauce

. Pan-Fried Pork Medallions with Creole Honey-Mustard Sauce

. Oven-Roasted Mojito Chicken

John even reveals the secret recipes for his famous homemade sides, desserts, and Honey Hush Cornbread. So . . .

Grab that way-too-clean apron off its hook and get ready to flip, slop, slather, and slide your way to barbecue heaven. After all, it ain't barbecue 'til you get some on you!

John Stage is a co-owner of the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que in New York City, Syracuse, and Rochester, New York. He got into the barbecue business in 1983 when he and his partner, Mike Rotella, sawed a 55-gallon drum in half and took to the road slinging barbecue at biker swap meets, fairs, and festivals. His travels armed him with lots of information and inspiration that he put into action when he opened the Dinosaur Bar-B-Que, a genuine honky-tonk blues and rib joint. The menu reflects John's own unique barbecue style, which combines traditional pit smoking with distinctive BBQ sauces. This book, John's first, is the result of years of passiondriven creative cooking, an abiding love of the blues, and a staff and clientele who live for barbecue. Nancy Radke, CCP (certified culinary professional), is a marketer of Italian food products and a food stylist. She is also the Director of the U.S. Information Office for Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese.
