How does a "regular guy" learn how to cook? Well, as most of them will freely admit—and the women in their lives will gladly testify—they don't. Sure, they're willing and able to toss some meat on the grill during halftime and serve it up with a handful of chips, but the vast majority just steers clear of the kitchen.

Author and chef Alan "Big Al" Weed's new book, All-Pro Cooking for Regular Guys, is designed to change all that. With its simple, clear instructions and its leavening of "regular guy" humor (all "G" rated), this is a pro's playbook for culinary rookies. In no time at all, even a guy who "couldn't boil water" will be inviting his buddies over to watch the "big game" and amazing them with Big Al's savory Buffalo Wings and Beer-Boiled Shrimp, or surprising and pleasing the lady in his life with Lobster/Crab Pâté, Cucumber and Squash Salad, Chicken Monterey, and Strawberries in Balsamic Vinegar -all prepared by him!

All it takes is this book, a little patience (an essential ingredient that's never listed in any cookbook), and the ability to follow a few simple instructions. Any man who is not frightened off by packaging that says, "Some assembly required," is ready to do some All-Pro Cooking for Regular Guys.
