Reviews"You hold in your hand some great food, and some even better stories." -- Andrew Zimmern , host, Travel Channel's Bizarre Foods "This tome of mouthwatering classic recipes beautifully celebrates the history and the diversity of quintessential American dishes." -- Carla Hall , chef, author, and co-host of The Chew "This wonderful collection of America's Classics award winners is so true to James Beard's spirit, and shows the deep affection and respect we all share for hard-working mom-and-pop cooks." -- Ted Allen , JBF Award-winning host, Food Network's Chopped "We were lucky enough to have spent time with James Beard who was a passionate advocate of the food of this nation in an era when the press wrote only about the cooking of France and Italy. Jim encouraged our earliest Roadfood adventures, and we know that this handsome book would have made him smile. It is a perfect homage to American food at its best." -- Jane and Michael Stern , authors of Roadfood

SynopsisThe renowned James Beard Foundation chooses the greatest of America's homegrown eateries and presents recipes for their craveworthy foods. Every town has one: a humble restaurant serving up soul-satisfying food, a place that pulls the whole community together. Maybe it's in a cinderblock shack or a clapboard house, but it's the kind of place you take for granted--until you leave town and an uncontrollable craving takes over. These are America's Classics--local eateries recognized by the James Beard Foundation as timeless institutions within their communities. This cookbook brings together eighty of their recipes so the home cook can re-create such regional favorites as St. Elmo's Crab Mac and Cheese, The Shed's Red Chile Enchiladas, Aunt Carrie's Indian Pudding, Bowens Island Frogmore Stew, Totonno's White Clam Pizza, Camp Washington's Cincinnati Chili, and Gott's Roadside Cheeseburger (with the secret sauce ). Just as good as the food are the inspiring tales behind these mom-and-pops, told in oral histories: how an immigrant grandfather turned an heirloom dish into a booming business, or how a vengeful lover's recipe for spicy fried chicken earned a cult following. James Beard's All-American Eats is a tribute to the local treasures and unsung heroes of true American cooking, as well as a collection of recipes for craveable classic dishes., A more authentic, thoughtful, and substantial answer to Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives , this book appeals to fans of Jane and Michael Stern (Roadfood) and Food Network shows like The Best Thing I Ever Ate, Food Finds, and Road Tasted . Celebrating 100 all-American classic homegrown restaurants from across the country -- each a place of pilgrimage for serious food-lovers and tourists alike -- this book brings together more than 100 recipes for comfort food as well as heartwarming stories behind these places, each of which is an anchor of the local community.
