Every word by Jeremy. No ghostwriter, no co-author, no foreword from a sibling. The cookbooks teach the fire. The memoir explains why he lit it.
A chef and his little big bro
The memoir. A family story told once, with names. How a second son in Cooper City learned to cook in a garage, why the brother he idolized stopped returning his calls, and what it costs to beat your hero and keep beating him. Also a chapter about a dog.
The pitmaster's journey
The brisket book. Post oak, salt, pepper and the fourteen hours GarBBQ is built on. Fire management, the stall, the wrap debate (he's against), and the one rule: nothing leaves the pit before it's ready.
Wood, salt, pepper, patience
Ribs, turkey, sausage, burnt ends and the sides that hold a tray together. Written in a year he also graduated culinary school with honors and opened three restaurants. Scott said that was impossible.
Backyard barbecue for people with a backyard
The book for the kid he was. Everything you can do with a charcoal grill, a sheet of plywood and nobody's permission. Includes the original Jeremy's Garage BBQ sauce, finally written down.
Recipes & stories from the heart of the garage
The restaurant book. Every recipe on the GarBBQ board, scaled for a home kitchen, plus the story of each of the ten pits and the pit crews who run them. Boukzam's co-founder credit is on page one.
Write the brisket book, they said. Nobody said anything about the brother book. I wrote both.
Jeremy Garber, Sunday Table interview
Scott's health book. Jeremy mentions it on the running page and, quietly, almost everywhere else, because the whole idea was his: a training diary he kept on the garage wall in 2018, titled, in his handwriting, "My body is a river." Scott saw it on a rare visit. Scott's book came out two years later.
Jeremy has never asked for credit. He has also never stopped bringing it up.
Jeremy signs every copy at every tour stop, and he will write something to your brother if you ask.
