Dove meals can become “same old, same old” for me. I am a dove popper zealot through and through. It is really the only way I prepare dove. So, when someone suggested I try something different, I first laughed in their face and said: “I don’t need something different. The dove popper is perfection. What […]

Antelope Kabobs: Antelope, Cantaloupe, and Pumpkin Pie
One of my favorite things about hunting is the little bits of memories we hold onto. Well that and recipes like antelope kabobs. Anyway, those little moments that stick in your head for years and each time you think about it or share it with someone else a little smile crosses your face. Spending time […]
TROUT EGGS BENEDICT
When someone suggested we use the rainbow trout from our latest fishing trip for a breakfast meal, I was less than thrilled. I am not a fan of fish for breakfast. I know, I know, there is lox and cream cheese bagels, which is okay in my book, but I still prefer them more for […]
PHEASANT GROUNDNUT STEW
Yesterday I planned for a true “bloggers” day to make pheasant groundnut stew. I heard about groundnut stew the week before and it sounded interesting. It is a staple meal from West Africa, but is popular in other parts of the world as well, and it usually contains peanut butter, hence the name “groundnut.” Most […]
Chipotle Pike Stew
Playing with the heat in dishes is one of my favorite ways to take an old recipe and create something new. This Chipotle Pike Stew recipe was the perfect specimen to see what a little spice could do to a basic fish soup recipe. I think the results were delicious. Pike is one of […]
Basil, Fennel and Rosemary Grilled Trout Recipe
I tried my hand at rainbow trout fly fishing this past weekend. I would not call it a success in the sense that I did not catch an actual fish, but I would not call it a failure for a handful of other reasons. Besides the fly fishing, I also got to dine on this […]
Ciopinno and Tarragon Pesto Kokanee Salmon Recipe
I’m still wrapping my brain around the idea of jigging for fish. I can’t seem to quite get the technique down, and for some reason not being able to properly execute the simple idea of rhythmically bobbing a weighted lure up and down is breaking down everything I thought I knew about fishing. However, I […]
Cajun Elk Sausage Hushpuppies
I feel a bit foolish admitting there was a time I had no idea what a hushpuppy was, and it wasn’t that long ago either. Growing up, the small town I lived in had a limited number of restaurants, and of the few in the area, they were mostly diner style menus filled with burgers, […]
Frisco Sausage Spices: A Sausage Experiment
One thing I find difficult to find at the grocery store is a good, solid sausage. There just aren’t many options when it comes to sausage spices. Sure, there are the traditional go-to sausages, like Jimmy Dean or Johnsonville, and don’t get me wrong, those are fine and they definitely get the job done when […]
Sous Vide Deer Steaks Topped with Smoked Cherry Reduction
I’m a sucker for kitchen gadgets. So, when my sister and brother-in-law surprised me with a Joule for Christmas this year, I was excited to start cooking! For my first sous vide experience, I decided it was a good idea to start with a recipe from the collection included on the Joule app: Sous Vide […]
