This is even cooler than what I was expecting. I bought this for my daughter, who loves to cook, and likes Snoop a lot. I may have to buy myself one now that I see it though. This has a little bit of everything in it and made me laugh too. This cookbook makes cooking fun! This is just too cool. I would give it 10 stars if I could. I bought the hardback and it is very good quality, well made, and attractive to leave out on a stand or a table.

I bought this for my 17 hear old daughter for Christmas. It was as much for laughs as it was for giving her something that was useful. I looked through the recipes before wrapping and they were perfect for her to learn to cook on her own. They were easy and looked delicious!
I'm slowly getting things for her to take with her when she goes out on her own. This was perfect.

From Crook to Cook: Platinum Recipes from Tha Boss Dogg's Kitchen cookbook is one of my favorites that I open often! My family's favorite ribs recipe came from this cookbook and I get requested the make them at family gatherings. The recipes are easy to follow and everything I have made has been delicious. The images are very nice and I love the cool excerpts inside.

Even better than expected. Lots of great stories and packed with recipes. Purchased as a white elephant gift and it was a big hit.

From Crook to Cook: Platinum Recipes from Tha Boss Dogg's Kitchen is a delightful culinary adventure that not only showcases Snoop Dogg's love for food but also brings a touch of his signature style to the kitchen. As a fan of both his music and personality, I couldn't resist giving his cookbook a try, and I must say, it did not disappoint.
The recipes are diverse and cater to a wide range of tastes, offering a unique fusion of traditional and contemporary flavors. Tha Boss Dogg's playful and laid-back approach to cooking shines through, making the entire experience enjoyable. The instructions are clear and concise, making it easy for both beginners and seasoned cooks to follow along.
What sets this cookbook apart is the inclusion of personal anecdotes and insights from Snoop Dogg himself. It's like having a friendly companion in the kitchen, sharing stories while you whip up a delicious meal. The Platinum Recipes section adds a luxurious touch, offering a glimpse into the lavish tastes of the iconic rapper.
The photography throughout the book is stunning, capturing the essence of each dish and making it almost impossible to resist trying out every recipe. The quality of the book itself is top-notch, with durable pages that can withstand the occasional kitchen mishap.
While I thoroughly enjoyed the majority of the recipes, I felt that a few could use more detailed explanations, especially for those who may be less experienced in the kitchen. Nonetheless, the overall variety and creativity make up for any minor shortcomings.
From Crook to Cook is a must-have for anyone looking to infuse their kitchen with a bit of Snoop Dogg's flavor. Whether you're a fan of his music or just a food enthusiast seeking something new, this cookbook offers a unique and entertaining culinary experience that's well worth the investment. Tha Boss Dogg has truly elevated his game in the kitchen, and I can't wait to see what he cooks up next!

I bought this to be a gag gift for my mother, after she signed us up for a cookbook exchange and I got her name. The intent was to get something that would make her laugh, but also have nutritional, useful, and unique recipes. I expected something silly to come in the mail, but this book is "legit" as Snoop himself would say. My mom owns an in-home bakery, and I am the only one who cooks in a household of four college students, therefore a book that could handle being passed around the kitchen, and flipped through regularly without the cover or pages deteriorating or damaging easily. As a very traditional Midwestern family we also enjoy recipes that carry tradition or sentiment. Crook to Cook has all of these. Each recipe comes with a story of its significance to the rapper's life, as well as an in depth breakdown of basic ingredients needed for each section, so you can be sure you have enough of everything in stock.
The book is very visually pleasing. Every recipe came with a visual to follow, as did the fun "what's in my pantry" section, that came with each chapter. This was extremely fun to look at, and inviting. The recipes all have proven unique, but not challenging, as other reviews promised.
The book offers a lot of variety in meal type as well. The dinner section is especially diverse, with everything from mac and cheese, to lobster tail. Browsing the table of contents, I was concerned that very few of the recipes were as simple as their promotion stated, but each has proven to be the same level of difficulty with varying levels of prep time necessary.
Physically, the book itself was well constructed. Though technically ‘paperback’ the cover is actually a thick vinyl, and the pages a lightweight cardstock. This made the book seem more durable, and less susceptible to damage from food residue to humidity from cooking. The cover seems as though it could easily be wiped down if a spill were to occur. The binding was thick but not stiff, and weighted just enough that I could leave the book open on my counter and it would hold the page I had turned to. Before passing the gift on to my mother, my roommates and I all looked through it, and the binding showed no signs of creasing. Overall I would say this book exceeded expectations and was well worth the purchase.
