We've got one of the big ATK cookbooks.

It looks something like this but is several years older



We've made a bunch of the recipes from ^this one^ and had 95% of them turn out to be really good-to-great. I think there have been 1 or 2 or 3 that we didn't get to turn out or we didn't like. I remember one in particular that has a bunch of rice in a large pan, then pieces (breasts, thighs, etc...) of chicken in it. The flavor is good, but we tried it 3 times and managed to burn the rice each time. I'm sure we had the heat too high or something. Some (ok, many) of their recipes are very involved. Cook this like this. Then cook that like that. Then put the 2 together and cook them a third way. Then set that aside and make something else to go with the first two items, etc....

I think there was one that we just didn't like the flavor of, and then I think there was 1 or 2 that we had a hard time cooking (like the burned rice).

We also had a "quick 30 min meals" from them.

I also bought this from a used book store.


It's got some interesting stuff in it.

I think the recommendations for tools in their book are generally pretty good.

I also like stuff from Alton Brown. We've had some good success using some of his methods/recipes.

I also look for other sources.
