Buford is the author of the books Among the Thugs and Heat: An Amateur's Adventures as Kitchen Slave, Line Cook, Pasta-Maker, and Apprentice to a Dante-Quoting Butcher in Tuscany. He was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and raised in Southern California, attending the University of California, Berkeley before moving to King's College, University of Cambridge, where he studied as a Marshall Scholar. He remained in England for most of the 1980s. Buford was previously the fiction editor for The New Yorker, where he is still on staff. For sixteen years, he was the editor of Granta, which he relaunched in 1979. Buford is credited with coining the term "dirty realism". WorkAmong the Thugs (1991) is presented as an insider's account of the world of (primarily) English football hooliganism. His chief thesis is that the traditional sociological account of crowd theory fails to understand the often complex problem of football violence as a particularly English working-class phenomenon. His book, based on years of exhaustive first-hand research as an 'outsider' -- in terms of both his background and his position as a member of the journalistic community—is considered by some to be one of the great social-research documents.[1]Heat (2006) is Buford's account of working for free in the kitchen of Babbo, a New York City restaurant owned by chef Mario Batali. Buford's premise is that he considered himself a capable home cook and wondered whether he had the skills to work in a busy restaurant kitchen. He met Batali at a dinner party and asked whether he would take on Buford as his "kitchen bitch."[2][3][4][5]Buford begins his time at Babbo in a variety of roles including dishwasher, prep cook, garbage remover and any other role demanded of him. Over the course of the book, his skills improve and he is able to butcher a hog and work many stations in the restaurant. Buford traveled to Italy to meet cooks and chefs who were crucial to Batali's early culinary development, as Buford worked and lived in some of the places Batali honed his craft. Subsequently, Buford started working on a book on French cuisine. In October 2007, Buford's article titled "Extreme Chocolate: The Quest for the Perfect Bean" was published in The New Yorker magazine. It describes his world travels with a leader in the world of gourmet dark chocolate, Fred Schilling of Dagoba Chocolates. Salman Rushdie's The Enchantress of Florence (2008) is dedicated "to Bill Buford." Buford's article "Cooking with Daniel: Three French Classics," about his experience cooking with French chef Daniel Boulud, was published in the July 29, 2013, issue of The New Yorker magazine.[6] In an interview posted on The New Yorkers website to accompany the article, he discussed his time living in France and what he had learned about French cooking.[7] Bibliography{{Expand list|date=June 2015}}Books
