My friend Jane comes through once again with an awesome find: a copy of The Art of Barbecue and Outdoor Cooking, originally published in the 1950's. It's filled with spectacularly bad recipes for all sorts of mid-century culinary delights, things like Franks in Silver, or a Hobo Special For One.
The best (worst?) part is the book's insistence on ingredients like "processed American cheese" and its fascination with stuffing minced-up things into other things...along with great section headers like "Let's Have a Hobo Picnic."
Recipes coming soon, although since this particular culinary gem is a BookCrossing book, perhaps one day you'll be lucky enough to cross paths with it yourself.
