The 2001 winner of the James Beard Foundation's award for Best Chef in America: Southwest, renowned executive chef Robert McGrath here collects his best recipes from the two Scottsdale, Arizona restaurants that have defined contemporary American western cooking. You'll find recipes for such luscious treasures as Indian Flatbread, Spinach Enchiladas, Pan Roasted Beef Filet in Coffee, and Chocolate Bread Pudding with Whiskey Sauce. As a special bonus, former Roaring Fork bartender and cellar master Dan Rutland teams up with McGrath to impart his secrets to the art of the cocktail. And because much western cooking is done over the campfire rather than the Jenn-air, McGrath also includes a chapter on cooking outdoors with cast iron!
