Book excerpt: Grilling. It's the most primitive of all the cooking methods. Picture our ancient ancestors speaking chunks of raw meat on sticks and gathering around a communal fire to roast their meal. Grilling is not BBQ, despite the confusion spread by interchanging the two terms. BBQ is meat cooked "low and slow" indirectly, with a long period of contained wood smoke. Grilling, is all about the fire. Searing foods directly, indirectly, over wood coals or charcoal briquettes, to create flavorful crust and char marks, exponentially increasing the umami flavors in the meat.From the standpoint of the Caja China cook, the difference can be summed up simply: If it's cooking above the coals, it's grilling, if it's cooking in the box, with smoke, it's BBQ. No smoke...you're roasting.La Caja China Grill provides the roasting box owner with detailed instructions for both direct and indirect grilling, specifically on the "top grills" of the Cuban-style pig-roasting boxes and Cajun Microwaves, whose popularity have exploded with their exposure on Food Television, and with cooks and chefs like Bobby Flay, Andrew Zimmern, and Martha Stewart. Perkins, a professional chef and cookbook author, provides tip on charcoal types, the proper amounts to use for each recipe, what woods provide the best smoke for specific ingredients, and even the best wine pairings for various grilled dishes, in the all-inclusive guide to grilling on the "magic box."And, of course, there are the recipes... More than 70 delicious beef, pork, poultry, fish, and vegetable entrees for the grill, as well as sides, sauces, rubs, and everything the grill-master needs for the perfect flame-kissed meal. All recipes are fully illustrated, and many provide web-links to additional cooking tips, definitions, and how-to videos.Summer's coming! It's time to oil up those grills, fire up the coals...and make some magic!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Barbeque, B-B-Que, BBQ...It means many things to many people. To some it's a piece of equipment, to some it's an event, to other's it a method of cooking. To many it's a deeply personal part of their history and their home.It's smoking meat, low and slow, or suspended over hot coals, or turning on a spit. Like religion or politics, it's hotly debated, reverently approached, it can be divisive or uniting, and it's only true definition is what it means to the one defining it.My best definition? Barbecue is a gathering, a meal, a sharing of time, food and companionship all in one. Barbecue brings people together and makes them happy. Barbecue is about good food, good friends, but always, it's about a good time.La Caja China: Smoke! is about BBQ, real BBQ, the various ways to make it in the Cuban-style roasting boxes, and the classic recipes that encompass BBQ from all over the United States.Let's have some fun.Let's make some smoke...

Download or read book Global History with Chinese Characteristics written by Manuel Perez-Garcia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book considers a pivotal era in Chinese history from a global perspective. This book’s insight into Chinese and international history offers timely and challenging perspectives on initiatives like “Chinese characteristics”, “The New Silk Road” and “One Belt, One Road” in broad historical context. Global History with Chinese Characteristics analyses the feeble state capacity of Qing China questioning the so-called “High Qing” (shèng qīng 盛清) era’s economic prosperity as the political system was set into a “power paradox” or “supremacy dilemma”. This is a new thesis introduced by the author demonstrating that interventionist states entail weak governance. Macao and Marseille as a new case study aims to compare Mediterranean and South China markets to provide new insights into both modern eras’ rising trade networks, non-official institutions and interventionist impulses of autocratic states such as China’s Qing and Spain’s Bourbon empires.
