Authors Acknowledgments
Lucy and Tere both wish to thank Linda Ingroia, who believed in us enough to let us write this book and encouraged us throughout the project; and Elizabeth Kuball, Project Editor Extraordinaire, who edited our words, managed the book project, and made the grueling task of writing a book in four months seem painless even fun!
We also give our heartfelt thanks to Acquisitions Coordinator Erin Connell, who made sure the bills were paid; Recipe Tester Emily Nolan and Technical Editor Majorie Cubisino, who gave extensive feedback throughout the project; Nutritional Analyst Patty Santelli, who came up with calories, fat grams, and sodium counts for over 80 recipes; illustrator Liz Kurtzman, whose artwork is absolutely adorable; and Production Coordinator Maridee Ennis, who managed the project through layout and proofreading.
Special thanks to Christine Marks at Le Creuset and Anja Thomas at Hamilton Beach for generously providing samples for our use throughout this project. Their willingness to ship products at a moments notice was heartwarming.
Lucy also wants to thank Donna Myers, spokesperson for the Barbecue Industry Association, for her words of wisdom, recommendations, and encouragement.
Tere also wishes to thank her husband, Doug, and best friends, Elizabeth and Jan, for being such excellent distractions while writing this book.
About the Authors
Lucy Wing, former Executive Food Editor at Country Living magazine and Food Editor at McCalls, grills as part of her everyday cooking and entertaining lifestyle. She often dishes up both outdoor and indoor grilled foods in the same meal and has been known to grill even with snow piled high around the area. Whether grilling on her rooftop in New York City, farmhouse in Pennsylvania, or patio in Arizona, only high winds force her to cease grilling outdoors to retreat to fulltime indoor grilling. Passionate not only about grilling, Lucy maintains gardens where she resides and often uses the bounty of her vegetables, fruits, flowers, and herbs in her recipes and food articles. Her garden food articles have been published in Country Living Gardener and Rebeccas Garden. She has edited a number of cookbooks, including Country Living Country Mornings, Family Circles Delicious Desserts, The Good Housekeeping Illustrated Cookbook, and Campbells Great American Cookbook. She created recipes for Anne Willans Look & Cook Asian Cooking and Readers Digest Quick & Delicious Cookbook, and has contributed to Time-Lifes Great Meals in Minutes. She was formerly a food consultant and food stylist to the Barbecue Industry Association and to many other food companies and public relations agencies.
