After years of cooking big game, upland game and waterfowl, I found success in crafting recipes in the kitchen that use simple steps and everyday ingredients. I hope that you will use my recipes to experiment, adapt, change and inspire others to find respect and passion for any harvests brought home to the table. At the end of everyday there’s something special about enjoying your own home cooked meal and reminiscing with family and friends.

It has been tradition to cook up some of the backstrap as soon as we get back to camp after harvesting an animal. This…
We’ve made this tamale pie with both elk burger and venison burger. I’ve had no complaints and nobody can decide which one they enjoyed…
Lucky for us, Andy drew a mule deer and cow elk muzzleloader tag in the same area of Northern Nevada. We packed for weeks…
The possibilities for variation are endless when it comes to making ‘One Cast Iron Skillet Casseroles’. And with the temperatures dropping outdoors it makes…
Forget about Meatless Monday’s. I’d prefer to celebrate Monday with this Venison Burger Bake topped with Cornbread Stove Top Stuffing. Serve warm with a side salad or nothing at all.
A quick and hearty elk chili that uses minimal ingredients and makes just the right amount of food for two. Try substituting ground venison or antelope.
Elk and cheese-filled flour tortillas baked under a green sauce infused with tequila. Adjust the amount of tequila to suit your taste. Enjoy! (Substitute ground venison or antelope.)
You just can’t beat a single or double stacked fresh ground venison hamburger topped with sharp cheddar cheese, applewood smoked bacon and avocado… and let’s not forget a little extra added heat from the jalapenos.
One of my favorite upland game recipes for chukar and quail are these easy to make Parmesan Chukar and Quail Nuggets with Killer BBQ…
OK, truth be told, this isn’t 100% my own recipe for these flavor packed chipotle duck and sausage mini sliders, but I do have to say I did grind my own pork sausage used in this recipe and added a little extra KICK!
Sizzle up traditional meals with game meat like these green chili elk, bacon and cheese enchiladas. If you don’t have elk available you can substitute with venison, antelope or beef.
I’m borrowing this recipe from some friends since I thought it was a great combination for making some Bold and Flavorful elk burgers. It’s a simple recipe that I’m sure would be just as good using other game meat as a replacement if elk is not on hand.
There’s nothing better than a heavenly hearty meal on a Sunday night. Mozzarella stuffed elk meatballs drowned in red wine tomato sauce served up with some fried basil and crusty bread. What else could you ask for?
Round steak is often tough, and hard to cook. One of my favorite ways to cook it is in a crockpot. Slow cooking it really helps give it a better flavor and a softer texture. Slow cooked antelope is perfect for tacos, stroganoff or breakfast burritos.
A pound of ground antelope, venison or elk, shaved carrots, brown mushrooms, diced shallots and some ricotta cheese are what makes these personalized meat pies Delicious.
Flavorful and extremely easy to make Pesto Elk Meatballs … you’ll FOOL everyone with this recipe. Make it with antelope, elk, venison or regular beef!
Here is a not so boring pizza recipe with elk Italian sausage, ricotta cheese, tomato sauce, sautéed mushrooms and onions, fresh oregano, basil and cherry tomatoes.
Oops. I did it again. I had to make one of our favorite burgers into a smaller slider of a size. Try these Brie stuffed elk sliders with sautéed mushrooms and BBQ sauce.
I’m always looking for easy to prepare wild game recipes to cook up using staples in the pantry and avoiding having to make a special trip to the grocery store…
What do you do when you have an over abundance of wild game salami in the fridge… you can make these easy salami calzones with fontina cheese, parmesan cheese, ricotta cheese, red bell pepper and carmelized onions.
I’m a pretty simple cook when it comes to cooking up wild game cuisine, but when asked if I have ever tried cooking wild game in a SousVide Supreme machine, my first response was… “What the heck is it?”
I enjoy the challenge of combining ingredients that I already have in the pantry to avoid having to go to the grocery store too many times during the week. Soups just happen to be one of my favorite meals to create… Leave me a message and let me know what you think!
Try something different with your meatloaf… Make elk meatloaf with olives, onions, horseradish and a little parmesan cheese served up with a side of mashed potatoes and gravy. Leave me a message and let me know what you think!
Easy and tangy barbeque sauce takes minutes to make and is a perfect dipping sauce for most if not all wild game.
