Visit www.baked-off.com. Is it possible to bake your way to a million dollars in just one day? Feeding America's ever-growing appetite for food memoirs, celebrity chefs and food columnists continue to treat the average weekend chef to a picked-over buffet of anecdotes and musings. Now, in BAKED-OFF!: MEMOIRS OF A PILLSBURY BAKE-OFF® JUNKIE, everyone, from the humblest home cook to the loftiest armchair gourmet, is finally given their due. BAKED-OFF! offers a toothy view from the Pillsbury Bake-Off® competition floor as it follows one man's quest to win the Holy Grail of all cooking contests and its million dollar grand prize. Anyone who loves to cook or compete will want this book. But the particular appeal to foodies, chowhounds and those with a curiosity for the subculture of competitive cooking makes BAKED-OFF! a distinctive entry into the food-lover's market. Steve Grieger's unique and highly entertaining voice is a welcome addition to the literary scene. At once candid, self-effacing, hilarious and poignant, his verbal pyrotechnics land him in a league with the best food memoirists of his kind, including those as varied as Anthony Bourdain, Julie Powell and Amanda Hesser. Not only does Grieger fully detail the Pillsbury Bake-Off®, he delves soul-first into the entire pageant which surrounds the event as 100 home cooks are treated to a whirlwind of dinners, parties, paparazzi and celebrity status. Unlike anything before it, BAKED-OFF! is the first book to successfully capture the hidden moments, heartaches and victories distinctive to this subject matter, foretold with a deft blend of pop-culture commentary, expose, recipes and romance. Deliciously fierce and funny, author Steve Grieger's BAKED-OFF!: MEMOIRS OF A PILLSBURY BAKE-OFF® JUNKIE stirs together everything from good-sportsmanship to bad blood to the thrill of contesting in all its social repercussions, ultimately celebrating an addiction to our three most debated American values: commercialism, competition and camaraderie.
