Meat satisfies their deepest desires and cravings, and besides - it just tastes so damn good! Tired of eating Caesar salads and poached chicken breasts at lunches, brunches, and dinners with the girls, Vanessa, Kristina, and Gemma knew there had to be something better. Over dinner one night, the three confessed that they each had a secret love of meat. The Meat Club started at that moment. They quickly established a simple set of rules to guide them: You have to be a girl, You have to eat meat, You have to love to talk about meat, What is said in the meat club stays in the meat club. The rest is history - over the past 4 years, they've cooked more great meals together than they ever thought possible.

"The Meat Club Cookbook" is a collection of 60 tried-and-true recipes culled from their best meals together. Most of these recipes come from their mothers.
