Description: My name is Ree. Some folks know me as
"The Pioneer Woman."
After years of
living in Los Angeles, I made a pit stop in my hometown in Oklahoma on the way
to a new, exciting life in Chicago. It was during my stay at home that I met
Marlboro Man, a mysterious cowboy with steely blue eyes and a muscular,
work-honed body. A strict vegetarian, I fell hard and fast, and before I knew
it we were married and living on his ranch in the middle of nowhere, taking
care of animals, and managing a brood of four young children. I had no idea how
I'd wound up there, but I knew it was exactly where I belonged.
The Pioneer
Woman Cooks is a homespun collection of photography, rural stories, and
scrumptious recipes that have defined my experience in the country. I share
many of the delicious cowboy-tested recipes I've learned to make during my
years as an accidental ranch wife—including Rib-Eye Steak with Whiskey Cream
Sauce, Lasagna, Fried Chicken, Patsy's Blackberry Cobbler, and Cinnamon Rolls—not
to mention several "cowgirl-friendly" dishes, such as Sherried Tomato
Soup, Olive Cheese Bread, and CrÈme BrÛlÉe. I show my recipes in full color,
step-by-step detail, so it's as easy as pie to follow along.
You'll also find
colorful images of rural life: cows, horses, country kids, and plenty of
chaps-wearing cowboys.
I hope you get a
kick out of this book of mine. I hope it makes you smile. I hope the recipes
bring you recognition, accolades, and marriage proposals. And I hope it
encourages even the most harried urban cook to slow down, relish the joys of
family, nature, and great food, and enjoy life.
