"Not bad for someone who never wanted to be a chef!" This is what Ludwig "Lucki" Maurer thought when he was named the highest newcomer in the Top 100 German Chefs by Rolling Pin in 2020. One of the most popular German TV chefs, he is much more than just a cook: he raises Wagyu cattle in his home in Lower Bavaria. In addition, he is a cookbook author, heavy metal musician, and runs a successful catering business as well as the pop-up restaurant STOI. Through his numerous TV appearances, including "Kitchen Impossible," "The Taste," and "In 80 Steaks Around the World," he has become widely known to the public as the "Meat Pope." In "Well Done," he offers an intimate look into his bustling daily life, his philosophy on cooking and enjoying food, his approach to animals, his experiences as a TV chef, the value of friends, family, and his homeland, the Bavarian Forest, as well as his greatest passion, music. The book is complemented by recipes that have played a role in his varied life, playlists of his favorite songs, wines, and restaurants.
