AT HOME BY STEVE POSES

 

More parties. Better. Easier. Everyone can learn to be a better home cook and a more relaxed host by drawing on the seasoned advice of a caterer and restaurateur who’s served over 20 million guests at legendary events. First published in 2009, At Home by Steve Poses: A Caterer's Guide to Cooking & Entertaining is more relevant than ever before as more people look to create higher quality meals in their own kitchens.

Stuffed with planning tips, menu ideas and worksheets to keep track of shopping needs and task timelines. Add in more than 500 recipes—all with a make-ahead component—and Poses’ mantra to have “more parties, better, easier” seems downright doable.

This comprehensive guide serves as a trusty, timeless reference, earning a lifetime rightful spot in even the most curated cookbook collection—an ideal primer for anyone who wants to step up their in-house game. 

 

At Home was originally published in conjunction with Steve’s At Home blog plus a dynamic website that featured added content accessible only to those who had purchased the book. That site no longer exists, but we have made some of those features available here for everyone.
