Hearty, comforting, classic fare--lip-smacking ribs, perfectly roasted chicken, thick-cut potato chips, all manner of steaks--plus starters and sides make this lavishly illustrated cookbook a dangerous one to look at on an empty stomach. Food fads come and go, but this fare is both easy to make and proven as a perennial favorite.
