Synopsis

When life gives you alpacas, make burgers. If you want to expand your cooking horizons, learn to use ground meat in exciting new recipes, and possibly even learn to cook an animal that many people might not have thought of grilling up, this is the one cookbook you cannot do without. You may recall the "alpaca lifestyle" craze that swept the nation in the early 2000s, and perhaps you've wondered what became of all those mellow, furry animals. While selling the silky fleece has not been exactly a business success story for many farmers, the alpaca phenomenon was not a total failure, because the cuddly little beasts are also just plain delicious. Learn to prepare alpaca—or whatever ground meat you have on hand—in styles that will carry your palate and imagination across the globe, and even back in time. Learn all you need to know about the best ways to use the surprisingly large sections of very tough product these Peruvian imports carry on their legs. Thinly sliced, or simply ground? And if you have a neighbor or a friend with a yard full of alpacas and little to show for the trouble, this valuable guide might be the doorway to a new lease on life.
