Cooking in The Big House: Inmate Cuisine

With respect to all families affected by crime, part of the proceeds from this book will be donated to the Crime Victims Fund.

Cooking in The Big House is a lighthearted look at the other side of prison life. There is more to prison than just bad guys behind locked cells. There are hundreds of inmates participating in rehabilitation programs, getting ready to rejoin society. There are inmates receiving their college degrees, GED's and vocational skills such as air Conditioning and carpentry. There are inmates raising money to give back to community organizations, putting together bicycles for kids at Christmas time. There is a lot of good going on in prisons. Having said that, Cooking in The Big House will take the reader into the lives of inmates and show you how creative and inventive they have become when it comes to cooking meals in their cramped living quarters. The reader will learn new prison terms for some of the tools that are used in cooking the recipes that inmates have created. Put all of your bad thoughts about prison life away for a few minutes and let Cooking in The Big House take you away to a world different from yours in the safety and security of your home.
