JUICY STEAKS AND TIGHT SPIRALS SINCE 1975

Hi there! We’re Mark Anderson and Ryan Fey, but you can call us The Grill Dads, or the two idiots, or the magical wizards of all things grilling. All three are correct. We live and cook by a very simple mantra: We can literally make anything on the grill. F*ck yeah.

In our cookbook we show you how to ball out as hard as we do, and make juicy, well-seasoned and perfectly cooked dishes on your backyard grill or smoker. Here are just a few epic meals you’ll find:

• Little Red Bavette with Real Herby Chimichurri
• Good Mojo Picón Flank Steak
• Petite Tender: The Steak Named After Us
• The Very Best Grilled Chicken Ever
• Chicken Paillard So Thin It Only Has One Side
• Not Your Grandma’s Dry Turkey and Stuffing
• Jalapeño Popper Stuffed Pork Tenderloin
• Schnitzel, I Don’t Even Know Her
• Pinkies Up Smashburger
• McActually McGood Rib Sandwich
• Mark’s BBQ Oysters with West Carolina Mignonette
• Whip It Good Smoked Feta Dip

Every recipe shares our top-secret tricks for elevating each cook and making your proteins sing. (Here’s a hint: For the love of god stop wet brining your turkey.) We also walk you through the best practices to use and not-abuse charcoal, gas and pellet grills, and how to double each as a smoker, so you can make any recipe in this book no matter your equipment. Sure, we like to have fun and make dick jokes (sorry Mom & Dad), but at heart, we are backyard warriors and culinary nerds, and we simply can’t wait to bring these amazing grilled dishes to your homes and bellies.

For fans of The Measure of My Powers and Notes from a Young Black Chef, a memoir about food, family, and the recipes that brought one woman home, just when she needed it the most.


Suzanne Barr's journey to become a chef started when she was 30. Her mother was diagnosed with cancer and she moved home to Florida to take care of her. Suzanne escorted her mother to doctor's appointments, bathed her, and kept her company, but the hardest part of the experience was that she didn't know how to cook for her. She didn't even know where to begin.

Fast-forward to the summer of 2017 when Suzanne became the inaugural Chef-in-Residence at the Gladstone Hotel in Toronto. She wanted to create a menu that represented who she was as a chef and it emerged as a love letter to her mother. Her Rite of Passage Menu, as she called it, changed her. It started her on a journey that has brought her closer to her mother, to her ancestors, and to her Jamaican heritage.

But a lot has happened before and since.

Homecoming tells the story of a woman who is always on the move, always seeking; who battles the stereotypes of being a Black female cook to become a culinary star in an industry beset by dated practices and landlords with too much power. From the ackee tree in front of her childhood home, through New York City, Atlanta, Hawaii, the Hamptons, and France, Suzanne takes us on her unpredictable journey, and at every turn, she finds light and comfort in the kitchen. Told in a voice as fresh and honest as her cooking, Homecoming is a celebration of creativity, soul searching, and motherhood that asks, "How can I keep the things I love?"
