Pete Hurrey’s The Grease Monkey Gourmet is the ultimate guidebook for men—advice on cooking and pearls of wisdom about relationships—resulting in a rousing recipe of invaluable information. Hurrey’s “point system” is just one of the many gems that gives solid recommendations on how to communicate with your significant other. A man’s points are only transient at best, lasting only so long as the next time we lose them. A woman’s are a lifetime achievement deal and never go away! Also included are easy-to-fix meals (that will earn you more points) that any guy can readily prepare at a moment’s notice. You’ll get vital info such as prep time/beer time. According to Hurrey, 30 minutes of prep and an hour and a half cooking time is equal to five beers; of course, these variables can change if grilling outdoors. One of his recipes, “Beer Butt Chicken” requires a six pack or two—during prep time, you’ll chug down a couple of brews, but you’ll need more for the actual cooking! Pop open a beer and get ready to laugh out loud. The Grease Monkey Gourmet will become a staple in your kitchen library and one you’ll want to pick up for your friends to help them score crucial “points” with their own significant others.
