Enter For a Chance To Win a Copy of Guy Fieri’s New Cookbook: Guy Fieri Food by Michelle Buffardi in Books, Contests, June 8th, 2011

Guy Fieri and his dad prefer to spend Father’s Day grilling out in Guy’s Santa Rosa, CA backyard over a restaurant dinner to celebrate their special day. For the Fieri’s, cooking is a multi-generational family affair — Guy’s kids get involved, cooking alongside their dad and grandfather. They plan the menu well in advance, choosing recipes that everyone loves and that everyone can help cook, too. For inspiration, they look no further than Guy’s new cookbook, Guy Fieri Food — now a New York Times bestseller — for recipes spanning Guy’s whole career.
To celebrate dads everywhere (and Guy’s book making the bestsellers’ list) we’re giving away 3 copies of Guy Fieri Food! All you have to do is let us know, here in the comments, how you’re celebrating Father’s Day this year. Do you and dad cook together, or does he prefer a restaurant meal? Do you whip up a special dessert just for him, or grill him a juicy steak? We’re giving away one copy of the cookbook to three randomly-selected, and very lucky commenter’s.

I will be spending Father's Day quite a distance from my father. However, I am celebrating Father's Day with some other well known, albeit locally, celebrities. My best friend, my husband, my son, and 2 grandsons. The women in their lives, myself, my daughter and grand daughter will be treating them like royalty. We are so grateful for these men in our lives, and grateful also that we hail from a military family – Navy runs deep in our veins. We are saying an extra prayer on Father's Day, that all the military wives, husbands, mother's, father's, sons, daughters, and extended family members currently serving in our military will soon be reunited with their loyal loved ones. Peace to all on this day to honor the strong, males that we have in our lives.
My father passed away 4 years ago but when he was alive we would have a family picnic. Since we are of German decent we would always have German potato salad!!! The rest of the menu usually consisted of grilled chicken, corn on the cob and pie for dessert.
This year my daughter-in-law and I decided we will take my husband and son to a winery for wine tasting. After that we will be having a family picnic. Menu not finalized yet but most definitely is will involve the grill, seafood, some cocktails, and a scrumptios dessert. Most years my husband and son go out for a round of golf and some good Father/Son time.
There is a nice stocked pond in my back yard so my dad and bro r coming over to do some fishing during the day. Later I am preparing a ricotta and sausage lasagna with my homemade marinara. And also a couple loaves of garlic bread with homemade italian bread. Since my mom passed away last year, dad doesn’t get a lot of scratch cooked meals like that anymore. I’m sure he will love it. Have a nice father’s day everyone.
Celebrating the day with my kids and in laws. Of course I will be taking care of the cooking. Hope for good weather because I hate BBQ in the rain.
My guy is a new dad! Our son Colten was born a month premature on april 12th and is now doing great. So in celebration of father’s day and what a good daddy he is, I’m making John’s favorites. Bacon wrapped shrimp and scallops with spicy sweet and sour sauce and asparagus and corn on the cob with chipoltle lime butter. All on the grill! With a side of dirty rice and homemade mississippi mud pie for dessert. Yum :)
