HARLEY BIKERS COOKBOOK - Tapa dura

The Harley Biker's Cookbook combines the spirit of motorcycling with a collection of hearty biker recipes from around America. Whether you choose outdoor barbecues with fellow riders or kitchen specials for family and a few friends, "enjoy" is the key word in this cookbook. It includes breakfasts and brunches that get you on the road, meat and poultry feasts for main courses, and mouth-watering desserts and snacks. This original approach to cooking shows how to create extraordinary dishes as well as variations on old themes. This is Real Food for real bikers: delicious meals that will carry you through a long day's ride and reward you with richly satisfying flavours at sundown.
