The Eat Like a Man Guide to Feeding a Crowd: How to Cook for Family, Friends, and Spontaneous Parties

Learn how to make food that you like for the people you like with the go-to guide for get-togethers from the Esquire team that brought you Eat Like a Man.

This welcome follow-up to Esquire's wildly popular Eat Like a Man cookbook is the ultimate resource for guys who want to host big crowds and need the scaled-up recipes, logistical advice, and mojo to pull it off whether they're cooking breakfast for a houseful of weekend guests, producing an epic spread for the playoffs, or planning the backyard BBQ that trumps all. With tantalizing photos and about one hundred recipes for lazy breakfasts, afternoon noshing, dinner spreads, and late-night binges—including loads of favorites from chefs who know how to satisfy a crowd, such as Linton Hopkins, Edward Lee, and Michael Symon—this is the only cookbook a man will ever need when the party is at his place.

"Here you'll learn everything from how to cook brisket and how to hold a knife to the best way to dispatch a lobster and how to clean mussels . . . The recipes also are nicely categorized as easy, reasonable and 'worth the effort.'" —Tampa Bay Times

"Maintaining a formula similar to the original, 80 recipes from a distinguished line-up of chefs are offered, interspersed with brief essays from Esquire authors." —Publishers Weekly
