From Crook to Cook: Snoop Dogg's Cookbook
✓ Product data checked October 23, 2026
Snoop Dogg's first cookbook gathers 50 recipes from his own collection across 192 pages, with soul food staples such as baked mac and cheese, fried bologna sandwiches with chips and a shrimp po' boy, plus weeknight dishes like soft flour tacos and easy orange chicken. A #1 New York Times bestseller with more than 1.5 million copies sold, it carries the personality fans know from Martha and Snoop's Potluck Dinner Party. It lands well with a home cook who likes comfort food, or with a Snoop fan who will enjoy reading it as much as cooking from it.
Why it makes a good gift
