Buckle up, burger lovers. You’re in for a ride to hamburger heaven!

The Great American Burger Book showcases a wide range of regional hamburger styles and cooking methods. Author and burger expert George Motz covers traditional grilling techniques as well as how to smoke, steam, poach, and deep-fry burgers based on signature recipes from around the country.

Regional burgers include: The tortilla burger of New Mexico The classic New York–style pub burgerThe fried-onion burger of Oklahoma Hawaii’s Loco MocoIowa’s Loose Meat SandwichThe Cuban Frita from FloridaMinnesota’s Jucy LucyThe Pastrami Burger from UtahAnd many, many more! Motz writes in his introduction, “Across America, burger diversity abounds. The unique flavors and textures of our best burgers run deep, and they begin with the regional methods by which burgers are cooked, well before toppings (both traditional and far-out) are introduced. In my many years of research around the country I have discovered that burgers can be smoked, stuffed, smashed, steamed, deep-fried, grilled, breaded, and poached. . . . They are mouthwatering variations on a theme.”

Motz provides expert instruction, tantalizing recipes, and vibrant color photography to help you create unique versions on America’s favorite dish in your own home. This is the perfect gift for the burger lover in your life—or for yourself!

Title: Superb recipes in a beautiful hardcover book
Review: I bought the hardcover edition and this book is all around fantastic.Besides the great and varied recipes it is a pleasure own, hold and use. Thick stock paper. Beautiful and frequent full color images. Great succinct writing. Should last forever.ONCE AGAIN the recipes are definitely THE main event here. I mean it takes hamburger cooking to an art. A tasty, delicious, glorious, cooking, and eating art. The rest of it (the book itself) is very tasty icing on a great tasting cake.Kudos to George!!!I just ordered another copy for my son.I thought about getting it in kindle version but a reviewer said the images were out of place. After seeing the book I’m glad I ordered the hardcover instead.I also ordered the companion hamburger places book. Can’t wait to get it.

Review: This book along with Hamber America two of the best resources to have if you are serious about your burger making. The recipes are educating, simple and easy to remember. I have become the “Go To Guy” in my entourage.

Title: George Motz is my hero
Review: As a trained historian and cheeseburger lover, I can honestly say George Motz is my hero. He has invested years of research into a seemingly every day topic. He is fun, and teaches us not only about a national favorite dish, but also about our nation. The cookbook is fun and informative. The recipes are easy to follow. It also looks nice, having become a coffee table book in our home.

Title: Well worth the price
Review: On a whim I bought this book along with a couple other burger books. I'm looking for ideas for using TVP to make vegetarian burgers and thought they might provide some ideas on other things I could mix into the TVP. This book alone was well worth the purchase. I already have a very impressive list of ideas on how to make what are hopefully some awesome vegetarian burgers (I know it sounds like an oxymoron; however, one has to do what they can to keep the family happy.) And even better it has this fabulous recipe for olive-mayo mix that is delicious on sandwiches.

Title: Awesome reference or cookbook
Review: I have watched George for years on YouTube and had to buy his book. I don't know if there is anything in this book that I didn't see in one of the videos... but to have this as a reference and to support George by buying the book is mainly why I got it. I am not disappointed at all. Well worth the price of admission.

Title: The Finest Piece of American Literature I Have Ever Purchased
Review: The quality of this printing is top notch. The information presented by George is fantastic and his recipes are even better. It is no wonder he is considered our nation's foremost burger expert. He has another book to check out as well, Hamber America. Recently he has published some videos with First We Feast on YouTube which are entertaining and informative; check them out.

Review: My favourite episodes of The Burger Show feature George Motz as a guest; I found his manner of speech both intrigued and educated a person regarding the hamburger.My Dad and I bonded over the creation of burgers and still enjoy cooking together decades later. I hoped this book would introduce us to a few interesting new recipes. I did not realize it would be a life altering purchase. I can honestly say that we will never go back to our old methods; every week we look forward to the next page and a new culinary delight. Also, the quality time we are spending cooking together again, is priceless.Motz's pared down recipes allow the fantastic flavour of the beef and accents from uncomplicated condiments to be fully appreciated. The recipes are inexpensive to build, simple to follow, and unbelievably satisfying.

Review: O livro fala pouco sobre o hambúrguer, que era o que eu mais queria saber, trata muito de receitas. As receitas são muito originais e diferentes, dá vontade de fazer uma viagem pelos EUA só provando cada uma delas!!

Review: Klasse Buch! Ich habe das Gefühl vorher noch nie richtig den Unterschied zwischen guten und schlechten Bürgern verstanden zu haben. Achtung! Nachteil ist das mir fast nirgends mehr die Bürger schmecken so wie daheim. Fazit: Könnte auch „Burgerbibel“ heißen.

Review: Great book full of delicious ideas for the home of the hamburger. Here in Australia we have two types of burgers. ‘Plain’ : beef, tomato, onions, beetroot, tomato sauce (ketchup) lettuce on a toasted buttered bun. Or a ‘Burger with the Lot‘ : plain burger topped with a fried pineapple ring, bacon, fried runny egg and cheese!George’s book strips it all back to simple ingredients beautiful.
