Story Behind The Book

Trop Crock Cooking is the no stress express to cooking on island time. John Buskell (author of The BackYard Tiki Bar) & Kim Denny hadn't seen each other in 30 years. A chance encounter led to a culinary adventure, which "slow cooked" into a romantic journey. From crocktails & cocktails to blender benders, John & Kim put the fun back into slow cooking. They have taken crock pot cooking from a fall and winter event into a year round "Trop Crockin" party. You will be amazed at what you can make, bake, blend, and brew in a crock pot, which they call the "Trop Crock". The book also includes links to the hottest trop shops, and trop rock musicians on the web. You can even order a personalized Trop Crock with your own pics from their website at www.TheBackYardTikiBar.Com. So load up the Trop Crock, turn on some trop rock, surf the trop shops, and have yourself a Trop Crockin good time.

I'm having fun reading all the quotes &amp; jokes that this is the most fun I've had reading a cookbook! I love it and can't wait to try out some of these recipes. Although I don't drink (I'm a mormon) I know I can usually substitute a few ingredients to make delicious drinks. Cheers John!<br /><br /> anet Tiahrt Werner December 31, 2010 at 7:33am Report<br /> Thanks and Happy New year to you!
