TEXAS COOKOFF contains a selection of recipes from the book STEWING IN TEXAS, the exciting tale of a landmark copyright case in 2001-2002. Carol Blakely contributed famous Texas recipes to this earlier Penfield book that tells the hilarious story of a lawsuit involving eighteen recipes and huge legal costs.
