A great gift for any golfer, whether or not he will ever visit Augusta National or see The Masters in person. As a caddy at Augusta National Golf Club, Tripp Bowden learned lessons about golf, life—and food. Here Bowden shares forty of his favorite recipes inspired by his life spent behind-the-scenes at Augusta. Complete with full-color photos, this book—certainly not standard by any cookbook terms—features surprising spins on a variety of delicious table-friendly, comfort food classics: Honey Baked Ham butter beans, Caddy house gumbo, Collard greens and pot liquor Deep fried pork chop sandwiches New England clam chowder Clubhouse ice cream Toasted pound cake (also known as Mr. Roberts's Dessert) And dozens more! Along the way, Bowden contextualizes how and when he enjoyed some of these unexpected culinary delights as he details his unique caddy experiences and the lifelong friendships forged through food and golf. In doing so, he creates a real treat for golf lovers and food enthusiasts alike, with elements of unscripted humor reminiscent of the classic Caddyshack sprinkled and dashed throughout! Review: Interesting and great recipes - Great gift to commemorate 3 year tour in Augusta, Ga. Review: Great book … badly damaged in shipping - Good little home style cookbook … however it was placed in a too large shipping box with no padding and the cover was damaged ( I take good care of my books !! ) This was a packing issue … not a delivery issue.

Ordinary Recipes/ Good stories
The recipes are nothing special nor unique. I thought they would be more creative. The stories are good.

Simple Recipes For Good Food
This cookbook, contrary to its title, is worth having if you want mostly simple recipes. The stories behind some recipes or places where they came from make it an interesting read on top of the typical cookbook utility.

Truly Historical Recipes!!
Cannot believe it!!! I got my cookbooks in the release date!!! Amazing Amazon service; even more incredible the recipes I have been waiting for a while now. I do not know which words to put together to describe the storied recipes and the stories written to go along with each recipe. Truly Historical!!!

Life depends on food and stories - that is abundant life depends on stories and stories.
I write this not as a review, but as a recommendation. As the author's father, I took the child Tripp to the caddy shack where perhaps the greatest soul food cook of all time, Horace Avery was equal to the skill of any cordon bleu chef. At a young age, Tripp could out-eat most of the caddies! That caddy shack and Horace are long gone, but the mouthwatering recipes live on in this book. After reading each story, cook the dish - with the first bite close your eyes and experience history - not many have had that experience - Tripp provides that moment for all of us!
