Hotel Emma is thrilled to welcome award-winning author, grilling expert, and Austinite Paula Disbrowe to help hotel guests and San Antonians get inspired to fire up something special on the grill. On Saturday, June 1 Paula will be at Larder signing copies of her newest book “Thank You for Smoking: Fun and Fearless Recipes Cooked with a Whiff of Wood Fire on Your Grill or Smoker.” The book signing will take place outside on Larder’s patio from 10a.m. to 1p.m. and is open to the public.

Featuring her own rendition of the sought-after Burnt Marshmallow & Toffee Rice Crispy Treats sold at Larder, guests are invited to get a signed copy of the book and sample the signature treats in the South Texas market.

In “Thank You for Smoking,” Paula Disbrowe shows home cooks how to elevate everyday meals with seductive, smoky flavors in this collection of 100 recipes for smoking meats, fish, poultry, vegetables, nuts, grains, pantry staples and even cocktails in as little as 30 minutes. After revealing just how easy it is to rig a gas or charcoal grill or use a backyard smoker to infuse everything with a smoky nuance, Disbrowe delivers a wide range of recipes easy enough for weeknight cooking. And because firing up dinner is best enjoyed with an adult beverage, this complete guide also helps readers set up their bar for modern smoke-kissed cocktails.
