A new cookbook/survival guide/love letter to Montreal for these apocalyptic times, from the James Beard Award-nominated culinary adventurists and proprietors of the beloved restaurant, Joe Beef.
"The first Joe Beef cookbook changed forever what a cookbook could be. Anything that came after had to take it into account. Now, with this latest and even more magnificent beast, the rogue princes of Canadian cuisine and hospitality show us the way out of the numbing, post-apocalyptic restaurant Hell of pretentiousness and mediocrity that threatens to engulf us all. It makes us believe that the future is shiny, bright, beautiful, delicious--and probably Québécois. This book will change your life." --Anthony Bourdain It's the end of the world as we know it. Or not. Either way, you want Joe Beef: Surviving the Apocalypse in your bunker and/or kitchen. In their much-loved first cookbook, Frédéric Morin, David McMillan, and Meredith Erickson introduced readers to the art of living the Joe Beef way. Now, they're back with another deeply personal, refreshingly unpretentious collection of more than 150 new recipes, some taken directly from the menus of Fred and Dave's acclaimed Montreal restaurants, others from summers spent on Laurentian lakes and Sunday dinners at home. Think Watercress Soup with Trout Quenelles, Artichokes Bravas, and seasonal variations on Pot-au-Feu--alongside Smoked Meat Croquettes, a Tater Tot Galette, and Squash Sticky Buns. Also included are instructions for making your own soap and cough drops, not to mention an epic 16-page fold-out gatefold with recipes and guidance for stocking a cellar with apocalyptic essentials (Canned Bread, Pickled Pork Butt, and Smoked Apple Cider Vinegar) for throwing the most sought-after in-bunker dinner party Filled with recipes, reflections, and ramblings, in this book you'll find chapters devoted to the Québécois tradition of celebrating Christmas in July, the magic of public television, and Fred and Dave's unique take on barbecue (Burnt-End Bourguignon, Cassoulet Rapide), as well as ruminations on natural wine and gluten-free cooking, and advice on how children should behave at dinner. Whether you're holing up for a zombie holocaust or just cooking at home, Joe Beef is a book about doing it yourself, about making it on your own, and about living--or at least surviving--in style."synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
"There is an exciting, punk-rock aspirational hippie vibe to every page. . . . This sort of cooking is a way of life." --Sam Sifton, The New York Times

It makes us believe that the future is shiny, bright, beautiful, delicious--and probably Québécois. This book will change your life." --Anthony Bourdain "Were it not for this book, I would have no choice but to pack my belongings and move to Montreal. It is a beacon of light for the Joe Beefless." --Jimmy Kimmel "A rambunctious treatise on culinary maximalism in the face of a tempestuous political climate." --Eater "Good god this book is a masterpiece." --Brooks Headley, chef/owner, Superiority Burger "Darkly humored and deeply entertaining." --Food & Wine "A book for every lover of food and life." --Diana Henry, The Sunday Telegraph "I am more excited about this book than any other cookbook this fall. The first Joe Beef book was a major, major influence on my cookbook criticism, and I am thrilled to report I think the sequel is even better. If the apocalypse means making lobster pelmeni and also this one insane soup that is poured over a foie gras terrine and cheese sauce sandwich til the end of time, bring it on. Did I mention there's a whole section riffing on 'Le BBQ Francais'? I'll stop gushing now, you get the idea." --Paula Forbes, Stained Page News "Lush, sumptuous, and so, so over the top, about everything. I just want to eat and cook and eat everything in this wondrous book, all at once and right now. This book is an emotional experience: laugh, cry, love, hate, you will do it all. Full of wild, mental, beautiful, inspiring dishes. I love it. It's a stunner like no other!!!" --Margot Henderson, chef/co-owner, Rochelle Canteen "Joe Beef: Surviving the Apocalypse claims to be a book 'about how to build things for yourself, ' a claim it easily surpasses with its eclectic and easy prose. Frédéric, David, and Meredith show that any craft--cooking, carpentry, or creating a great conversation--can be a high art if it's approached with passion and resolve. This isn't a book about cooking, it's a book about living a full, rich life. And we think it's built well." --Kevin, Norm, Richard, Tom, and Roger, the gang from This Old House "This book is so great that it even answers the question of why another cookbook. This is the book you need to survive, and with a huge grin on your face. At first it's the title that grabs you. By the time you have arrived at Cardinal Peaches, the both summer and winter pot au feu, and the pastry calf for Kidneys á la Monique, you are smitten. It seems that this is the book I have always wanted. Oeufs mayonnaise clinches it." --Jeremiah TowerA graduate from no prestigious cooking school, Fred Morin has long forgotten all about the art of plating good-looking food. From the daily task of heading the tiny kitchen at Joe Beef ten years ago he now mostly cooks ingredients that don't touch one another for three adorable yet very talkative offspring, Henry, Ivan, and Eleanor. He does sometimes cook overly complex and poorly budgeted, ambitious, classic French meals at home for his wife, Allison.
His life is still ruled by brief but intense bouts of diverse endeavors that somehow all come back to restaurants and cooking, be they gardening, trying to fly-fish in Alaska, preparing very large first-aid kits, or building bread ovens. In recent years, he casually alternated between yoga and drinking with an elegance rivaled only by the likes of Beau Brummell and Little Lord Fauntleroy.
