Barbecue Cookbook Benefits U.S. Marines

Last year, active duty and reserve Marines at 10 military installations around the country fought in a different type of battle, this one thankfully a lot safer than their day jobs.

The troops battled it out on the barbecue pit to find out who would take top grilling honors. The event, sponsored by Weber, was designed to earn money for the families of Marines killed or wounded in action.

To earn money, they are selling a barbecue cookbook that showcases the winning recipes from the competition, along with steak recipes from famous former Marines like Lee Trevino and Ed McMahon. The book is only $10, and 100% of the proceeds benefit the Marines and their families.

For $30, you can buy both the book and a nice knit shirt. The book is also available at a number of retailers like Ace Hardware and Do It Best Stores.

This is a really good cause, so I encourage anyone interested in barbecue and grilling to pick up a copy. It’s the least we can do.
