Considering we don’t buy meat from the grocery store anymore, I now have to transform wild game meat in a way that I can still use my old recipes. These BBQ Wild Turkey Sandwiches are no exception. Rather than pulled pork, I substituted in shredded wild turkey legs which works surprisingly well. Texture is theContinue reading “BBQ Wild Turkey Sandwiches”

Roasted Garlic Hummus
Hummus is one of my favorite snacks, but I’ve always been weary when buying from the grocery store. There are so many unnecessary ingredients that are added to hummus that’s been prepared to sell at grocery stores. When making it at home, I know exactly what goes into it, which makes me feel better. AsContinue reading “Roasted Garlic Hummus”
Venison Chorizo
I’ve always loved the flavor of chorizo sausage but since Connor & I don’t buy meat from the grocery store anymore, I’ve definitely been missing it. I had a few extra packages of ground venison in the freezer, so I thought I’d try my hand at making venison chorizo. This recipe is full of flavorContinue reading “Venison Chorizo”
Bear Chili
I was FINALLY able to get my hands on some bear meat so naturally the first thing I cooked was bear chili. Due to the possibility of trichinosis (a food-bourne disease caused by the parasite called Trichinella), in the meat, bear must be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Therefore, I try to incorporateContinue reading “Bear Chili”
Hearty Gnocci & Lengua Soup
Yes, lengua is another name for tongue and yes I know a lot of people are disgusted with the idea of eating tongue. I can understand this view on eating a muscle like the tongue, however, Connor and I really try to eat as much of an animal as possible. Tongue is no exception! TheContinue reading “Hearty Gnocci & Lengua Soup”
Wild Turkey & Bean Enchiladas
Growing up, my mom used to make enchiladas with beef, but now that Connor & I don’t buy beef from the grocery store, I figured I would substitute out the beef with shredded wild turkey legs. I was so pleased! The great thing about this recipe is you could swap out the turkey for whateverContinue reading “Wild Turkey & Bean Enchiladas”
How to Cook: Snowshoe Hare
I think there’s often a bad connotation with eating rabbit because they’re considered cute & fluffy. Connor has been hunting rabbits with dogs and recently he brought rabbit legs home for me to try some new recipes with. Rabbit legs reminded me of a smaller turkey leg so I figured I’d throw it in theContinue reading “How to Cook: Snowshoe Hare”
Creamy Italian Rabbit Soup
Recently, Connor has been out hunting snowshoe hares with beagles and on Friday, he brought home rabbit meat for me to try. I threw the legs into the crock pot and slow cooked for about 6 hours. The meat on the rabbit legs falls right off the bone and is the perfect addition to aContinue reading “Creamy Italian Rabbit Soup”
Garlic Green Beans
In addition to the Shrimp & Broad Noodles recipe I’ve posted, this is another inspiration dish from Empire Chinese Kitchen. Their garlic green bean appetizer is to die for and since the restaurant is over an hour away from my house, it was time to try to replicate it. After a couple tries, I thinkContinue reading “Garlic Green Beans”
Barbeque Venison Ribs
For the first time this past deer season, Connor brought home the ribs on the deer he was fortunate enough to shoot. I’ve always enjoyed ribs that I’ve bought from the grocery store, so I was thrilled to try venison ribs! I added a dry rub to these to flavor during the initial cook, andContinue reading “Barbeque Venison Ribs”
