“There are a few guys who have rightly earned themselves the title of ‘culinary bad boy’ in the past few years…Anthony Bourdain…Marco Pierre White…David Chang… But these guys are nothing compared to the heavy metal home cooks who contributed the recipes for Annick Giroux’s new cookbook Hellbent For Cooking.”—Serious Eats.com
“Part global cookbook, part underground metal compendium”—New York Post
“Sweet book indeed! I unveiled the secret of the best pizza in the world. Customers of my restaurant would have killed to get the recipe!”—Schmier, Destruction
“Positively no false meals…every single metalhead who gets around in the kitchen needs this book.”—Decibel
“From heavy metal royalty…the evilest of cookbooks.”—Flavorpill, The 10 Best Musical Cookbooks
“The book addresses an interesting reality: Music and food are inextricable.”—Hour Detroit
“This is probably the most physically beautiful book I’ve ever seen.” —Cosmo Lee, Invisible Oranges.com
“While I’m no cook myself, this will certainly be on my ‘to buy’ list as I am especially curious on how to concoct the Midnight 7″ Meatloaf!”—The Left Hand Path.com
“Fantastic beyond belief”—And Now the Screaming Starts

With this delicious collection of favorite basic recipes by heavy metal bands from around the globe, Annick “The Morbid Chef” Giroux declares war on junk food, and fires up the flame for a special heavy metal feast.
Hellbent for Cooking feeds voracious appetites with a varied menu of over a hundred recipes from thirty countries, including Yorkshire Pudding from England, Beer Pizza Crust from Germany, Spaghetti Barracuda from Italy, Fårikål from Norway, Country Lamb Exohiko from Greece, Churrasco from Brazil, and Mushroom Steak à la Jack Daniel’s from the United States.
The dishes are legendary, and so are the bands. Feel the heat of thrash metal pioneers Sepultura, Kreator, Anthrax, and Nuclear Assault; the proto-metal heavy rock of Thin Lizzy, early Judas Priest, and Uriah Heep; the slow-cooked doom of Pentagram and Saint Vitus; and the extreme cuisine of underground pioneers Autopsy, Death, Repulsion; and Norway’s infamous black metal chefs Mayhem and Gorgoroth.
Raise your infernal fork for madman Chris Reifert’s Mummified Jalapeño Bacon Bombs, then sample Roast Beef with Green Beans prepared under the watchful eye of Udo Dirkschneider of Accept. Try After the Bombs’ Speed Metal Vegan Tofu, or Eyehategod’s favorite New Orleans Blood Red Beans and Rice.
Afterwards, Doro Pesch of Warlock serves her Black Forest Cake, and Richard Christy from Death pours his trademark cocktail, the mighty Viking Testicle. Now for anyone with a taste for metal: The kitchen gates are open—grab your weapons of mass nutrition and let the feasts begin!
Featuring a full flavorful menu of appetizer, breakfast, lunch, dinner, vegetarian, seafood, dessert, and drink recipes contributed by members of:
Abigail, Abscess, Accept, After the Bombs, Alcoholic Rites, Amebix, Anthrax, Anvil, Armored Saint, Arphaxat, Atomizer, Autopsy, Bastardator, Bëehler, Blackfire, Blasphemy, Brutal Truth, Budgie, Bulldozer, Cauldron, Children of Technology, Control Denied, Countess, Cruachan, Dantesco, Deadmask, Death, Death SS, Deiphago, Denial of God, Desolation Angels, Destruction, Devastation, Dissection, Doro, Dusk, Electric Wizard, Elixir, Envenom, Exciter, Eyehategod, Faustcoven, Funerot, Goat Horn, Gorgoroth, Grimorium Verum, Gwar, Hidden Hand, Holocausto, Impaler, Inepsy, Judas Priest, Killers, Kreator, Lamp of Thoth, L’Impero Delle Ombre, Lord Vicar, Mantak, Master, Master’s Hammer, Mayhem, Melechesh, Messiah, Midnight, Minotaur, Mortal Sin, Mütiilation, Necromantia, Necrosadist, Nuclear Assault, Obituary, Obscurity, Orodruin, Pagan Altar, Pentagram, Piledriver, Possessed, Procession, Repulsion, Reverend Bizarre, Rigor Mortis, Rotting Christ, Sadistik Exekution, Saint Vitus, Sepultura, Shackles, Sigh, Sir Lord Baltimore, Skyforger, Slaughter, S.O.D., Spirit Caravan, Stiny Plamenu, Tankard, Thanatos, The Gates of Slumber, The Obsessed, The Rods, Lord Weird Slough Feg, Thin Lizzy, Toxic Holocaust, Trench Hell, Trouble, Tygers of Pan Tang, U.D.O..

“Hellbent For Cooking” is a revelation. So far we’ve made the mummified jalapeno bacon bombs, the churrasco, and the whiskey bacalao…all 3 are amazing! My gf isn’t a metalhead at all, and she loves the book. Great, simple, honest recipes.
I do wish Annick had asked for my gravlax recipe though!

I have tons of cookbooks. But when I read on the newspaper HELLBENT FOR COOKING existed I couldn’t resist ordering it even if one of my resolutions for 2010 was not to buy more cookbooks. I can’t wait to have my own copy in my hands. Congratulations for your success!!!
I got this cookbook for Christmas and have been cooking one to two dishes a week. It is fantastic. I made the Ceviche yesterday and it was great…When Kreator comes to Austin, Tx I am going to make the oatmeal burgers from their recipe and then go bang my head to great thrash!
My name is Toni and I’m from Spain. I found “Hellbent For Cooking” just checking the Internet and I soon got my own copy at the mail box like three days ago. First of all, I must tell ya that we both have two common passions: Metal and cooking!!! In fact that’s my job. I’m the main chef at a small restaurant in Madrid and I’ve been involved in cooking since like 8 or 9 years ago. Your book has been a real surprise and I’m trying to get some of the ingredients to prepare some of the recipes at home in the following days.
Salut Annik,
je me suis procurée ton bouquin par le biais de Legion of Death. J’attendais la publication avec impatience après avoir eu un appercu dans Morbid Tales n°6. La mise en page répond vraiment à tout ce qu’on peut attendre d’un bon livre de cuisine, il est agréable à lire et bien détaillé. Savoir que la recette est celle de tel ou tel autre groupe changerait presque le gout des plats!
Bonne continuation!
Marion.
