Great recipes and a little of the science that makes them work, though slightly expensive for what you get.

I enjoy reading about all their tests of recipes, the options, the results. Well written, and informative.

Great magazine, but the web site, Cooksillustrated.com is a better buy. I refer to it (the web site) a few times each week! BTW, everything in the magazine is on the web site.

I worked for years so never learned to cook, I was blessed with the chance to stay home and raise my kids thru high school, but I had no idea how to cook! I am a perfectionist and this magazine has made me love cooking and my family loves coming home for dinner! (and dessert)

Cook's gets into the nitty gritty details of how to really make a dish excel. No nonsense controlled chemistry experiments to figure out which cooking approach works best

I've subscribed to Cooks Illustrated for a while and gotten a lot of great advice. I like their empirical evidence based approach to cooking to figure out what works and what doesn't.

No adds and honest recommendations, they care more about results than fashionable tools and ingredients.

great recipes that work with fascinating articles to go with them.
Cons: lots of marketing (as stated above - this is the price for no ads), definitely opinionated.
