I would go to http://www.jessicasbiscuit.com and look to see what the current version is, then check out http://www.half.com to see if you can find a better deal..you could even try http://www.amazon.com to see if  they have a good deal too.

It is worth picking up, but I would get the latest version.

My bad, SR!  The latest (second) edition is from 2003, not 2004.  You can find it at Barnes and Noble (bn.com) or Amazon.com

Also, if you are looking for an excellent read that combines practical cooking knowledge with science, check out Harold McGee's 2004 book:  On Food and Cooking:  The Science and Lore of the Kitchen.  Habanero recommended to me a couple months ago . . . [:)]

Just got a copy of Smoke and Spice, 2003 revised edition. What a brilliant book, gets the mouth watering just reading it!! [:)]

It also gives me a better understanding of some of the cuts of meat you guys in the U.S talk about. e.g. Boston Butt.

If anyone has a reference to something that explains what the various cuts of beef and pork that are regularly mentioned on the forum are I would appreciate it, suppose there is some regional variation in the U.S and Canada in any case?

(Think JJC posted on the forum about doing a list at some stage, would be VERY helpful to a rookie UK smoker! [:D][:D][:D])

Hi Paul,

Olds and I are working on a new section of his "FAQ Forum" that will make it easy to see what part of the animal a particular cut (or name) of meat comes from.  Stand by to look at a draft document that will try to equate UK names for different cuts with their US or Canada opposite numbers.
