With the Esquire's Eat Like a Man Cookbook, all those masculine men can fill up on as much steak as their stomachs desire. The cookbook does contain more than just meat recipes, however, but if you are looking for a carnivore dish there are plenty to choose from. Moreover, judging from the pictures, it looks like you can load a ton of [meat on your sandwich](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highprotein-menu) just so long as it fits on the page of the cookbook. [Steaks are also a tasty-looking item](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pre-brands) if you require some delicious recipes for a [manly barbecue](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grill-master-box).
