Franklin Barbecue & Franklin Steak by Franklin & Mackay Boxed Gift Set

After searching far and wide for a book that wasn't just a compilation of summertime grilling recipes, but instead, a deep-dive into the world of authentic barbecue tools, techniques, and experiences, we discovered the world of Aaron Franklin. Aaron's restaurant has won every major barbecue award and has sold out of their brisket every single day since they opened up in a small trailer back in 2009. When the likes of Anthony Bourdain state that "Aaron Franklin makes the finest barbecue I've ever had, barbecue worth waiting for", you know you have something special. This book is for the dedicated pitmaster in your life, and comes with thoughtfully curated Walden Lane Gourmet products to perfectly complement the spirit of all this mouth-watering meat.

The following items are included in this gift set. Because this cookbook supports our un-recipe style of cooking, you will have a blast mixing and matching multiple spice blends with the different proteins and cooking methods outlined in each chapter. So, have a little fun in the kitchen and don't be afraid to Cook with Abandon!
