Brisket. Few words have such power to spark hunger and make mouths water. Whether barbecued in a pit, braised lovingly by a Jewish grandmother, or simmered for half a day by a Vietnamese pho master, this rich, flavorful cut ranks among the world’s most revered meats. Now Steven Raichlen, the James Beard Award–winning author of an impressive array of New York Times bestselling cookbooks, Barbecue Hall of Famer, and public television star, shares the definitive handbook to this storied cut of meat in THE BRISKET CHRONICLES: How to Barbecue, Braise, Smoke, and Cure the World’s Most Epic Cut of Meat [Workman; APRIL 30, 2019; $19.95].
At first glance, brisket is easy. Texas barbecue, for example, requires only three flavorings: salt, pepper, and wood smoke. But easy doesn’t always mean simple. Over the centuries, brisket’s bold flavor has made it popular across the planet, from North America to Latin America and Europe, from Vietnam to Korea and beyond. It can be braised, boiled, baked, cured, and even grilled. Brisket makes an awesome centerpiece, but it also proves a welcome addition to everything from soups, sandwiches, stews, and stir-fries. And although the cooking methods may seem straightforward, each involves insider knowledge and techniques.
THE BRISKET CHRONICLES delivers both a complete step-by-step guide, from buying, trimming, and seasoning brisket, to mastering the various cooking techniques—including how to cook it both indoors and outdoors—and a collection of fifty innovative recipes, from starters to breakfast to sidesthere’s even a brisket dessert. Highlights include:
An in-depth look at the history and culture of brisket
Essential tips for buying, trimming, seasoning, and carving
A complete exploration of cooking methods and gear, from Dutch ovens to Kamado-style cookers.
The luscious, boldly flavored recipes range from starters like Bacon-Grilled Brisket Bites and Vietnamese Crispy Brisket Salad; to classics like Old School Pastrami and Montreal Smoked Meat; to cutting-edge innovations like Brisket Ramen and Brisket Banh Mi. Aunt Annette’s Holiday Brisket with Sweet Wine and Dried Fruits (a dish from Steven’s childhood) employs the surprising yet effective technique of slicing the brisket halfway through cooking to maximize tenderness. For sides, try Raichlen’s Brisket Baked Beans or Brisket Yorkshire Pudding. As you’d expect, there are ample recipes for seasonings and barbecue sauces, from Butter Bourbon Injector Sauce to the Dalmatian Rub, a classic mixture of seasonings used by top pit masters.
A stunning collection of recipes and techniques for cooking what has become a cult meat beloved by the culinary world, THE BRISKET CHRONICLES provides extraordinary insight into how to master the art of cooking brisket.

Royal, Nebraska, population 81, is a place of characters out of central casting, rural charm, and deep dysfunction. It is a Great Plains town that failed to flourish—until Royal native and primate enthusiast Dick Haskin returned to his hometown with Reuben, an adolescent chimp, in the bed of a pickup truck and transformed a trailer home into the Midwest Primate Center.
From that ill-fated August 1986 decision, Zoo Nebraska grew, and transformed a desolate town on the brink of despair into a popular tourist destination over the next two decades.
With financial support from Nebraska native Johnny Carson, the primate center at Zoo Nebraska flourished, and ultimately became home to 60 animals across 7 acres. Haskin had hopes of creating “a first-class facility” that would become both an important research center and a boon to the local economy.
In "ZOO NEBRASKA: The Dismantling of an American Dream" - author and journalist Carson Vaughan describes how greed, small-town politics and power struggles, inept financial dealings, and myriad personality clashes led to the demise of the zoo.
It finally closed its doors for good in 2005 after 4 of the beloved chimps escaped and wreaked havoc on the town of Royal for hours, terrorizing its residents.
In an act of final desperation, 3 of the chimps - one of which was Reuben and Haskin’s “best friend” - were shot and killed by locals, a devastating and tragic end to the zoo and its inhabitants!!

Squeeze have announced the American leg of “The Squeeze Songbook 2019” tour that will see the UK legends play their extensive list of hits as well as rare, lesser-known gems from their back catalogue and solo careers. Tickets are on sale. For ticket information, visit http://www.squeezeofficial.com/shows/.
“I am over the moon to be announcing the 2019 tour with Squeeze,” says lead vocalist and guitarist Glenn Tilbrook. “We’ve had something of a renaissance in the last few years, and look forward to this continuing, as we will play a set of songs that are both new, contemporary and as innovative as people have come to expect from us, along with the old beauties.”
With a previous show at Coachella, forthcoming appearances at the KAABOO Del Mar and Bourbon and Beyond festivals, two critically-acclaimed albums in the last three years, numerous headlining appearances at festivals and sold-out solo shows, “something of a renaissance” seems like an understatement. The band will bring their scintillating live performances to the USA with a mix of not only the hits, but also rarities that span their 45-year career both as Squeeze and solo artists.
“I feel excited about the tour,” adds guitarist Chris Difford. “It’s a great band full of dedicated, hardworking, passionate people and we have a fabulous catalogue of songs to dip in and out of, so I feel completely blessed. I can’t wait to strap on the electric guitar again and sing the songs that got me where I am today.”
Difford and Tilbrook have been compared to Lennon and McCartney since “Take Me I’m Yours”, their first release in 1978, blasted the band into the forefront of the UK music scene. Following hits including “Tempted”, “Black Coffee in Bed”, “Hourglass”, “Cool For Cats”, “Up The Junction” and “Pulling Mussels From The Shell”, Squeeze established themselves as a vital part of the quintessential rock scene. These hits also established Difford and Tilbrook as two of the most prolific songwriters of their time with each amassing a wealth of melody-rich earworms over the past four decades as both Squeeze and solo artists. “The Difford and Tilbrook Songbook 2019” tour will capture the works of two of the most talented songsmiths working today.

Sergeant John Peck

Marine Sgt. John Peck survived an IED during the War on Terror that left him with a traumatic brain injury, amnesia, and cost him his marriage. He survived another three years later that left him with three and a half limbs missing. He's one of only two living people to survive the flesh-eating fungus he contracted in recovery at Walter Reed, one that left him as a quadruple amputee. And that's only the beginning of his story.
What followed was a recovery nothing short of miraculous. With resilience and the help of advocates like actor and philanthropist Gary Sinise, FOX's Jennifer Griffin, and Bill O'Reilly, John would use a specialized "Action Trackchair" wheelchair and a newly-built SmartHome to get a third lease on life. In 2016, Peck underwent a groundbreaking bilateral arm transplant, receiving two new arms. To date, the surgery has been successful.
Today, Peck is a motivational speaker and a philanthropist for veteran and wounded warrior causes. From the lessons learned in a difficult childhood and as a homeless teenager, to dealing with depression and PTSD in recovery, to learning how to chop with another man's arms, Rebuilding Sergeant Peck is Peck's account of an honest, comedic, visceral, and inspirational story that is truly unique.
"Marine Sgt. Peck isn't just a survivor, he's a thriver. His story still makes me smile. I'm so grateful that he entered our lives." -Jennifer Griffin, Fox News
