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.

August always seems to be the hottest month of the year and in 2011 it sure enough proved to be. Thirteen days spent camped…
My favorite thing about game meat is that you can cook it in so many ways that you would cook beef, chicken and pork without truly losing the ‘wild’ flavor.
Antelope is such a tender and flavorful meat that it makes it easy to prepare with minimum ingredients and minimum cooking time. This recipe is quick, easy and full of high intensity flavors. Enjoy!
Thank you to our good friends Danny and Leslie for sharing their ‘Secret’ Parmesan Chukar recipe. What I enjoy about this recipe as well as several of the other Big Game Recipes is that they are all flexible for other substitute game birds and game meats!
Do you feel like you need to go on a diet and cut back on your calorie intake for the day. It’s simple, make your favorite meal into half the size just like these mini elk sliders. Half the size must mean half the calories, right?
We have been pretty lucky this year to have had the opportunity to get out and hunt Nevada. This year seems to have been a better year for harvesting some of our favorite upland game birds and even so without the use of a dog!
Simple, quick and flavorful peppercorn elk sirloin skewers with sweet onion and cherry tomatoes.
Ground elk burger smothered in chili verde salsa, diced mild green chilies, kidney beans, chips and cheese. Two words… “So Good”!
Try these baked elk burger enchiladas smothered in mushroom soup and sour cream. It had to be one of the quickest to disappear out of all my enchilada recipes.
For all those out there who haven’t ever tried wild game cooking – let me just say you might be missing out on some of the best meats available. If you don’t know someone who is a hunter you can always order wild game from your local butcher. Be adventurous and try it!
So the question is which is better: Fried or Baked? My answer would have to be that they are both amazing but you just can’t beat anything that’s fried. PERIOD!
Try something different tonight and barbeque your basic taco toppings: tomatoes, onions, chilies and tortillas. It’s fun, different and best of all it tastes fantastic!
Making chili is a relaxing way to enjoy a cloudy, cold and wet weekend day. There are so many ways to make chili and…
I want to be honest and let you know that when you make these Raviolis … you’ll be addicted, craving them for breakfast, lunch and dinner. I know just looking at them I’m getting hungry.
Boiling your bell peppers prior to cooking on the BBQ is what really makes this dish a success. The sweetness of the pepper and the elk meat, the carmelized onion infused by the BBQ… and then top it off with melted cheese. Wow… It’s delicious.
Shepherd’s meat pie with Italian elk sausage includes chopped celery, carrots, onion, mushrooms, fresh tarragon, shallots, a little bacon and mashed potatoes.
The perfect appetizer for impressing your dinner guests has to be Mushrooms stuffed with ground elk, barbequed sweet onion and smoked mozzarella cheese hot out of the oven.
The best cuts of meat deserve the most attention to detail; however, that doesn’t mean that you need to use the most expensive ingredients. Simple things like sage leaves, creamy Alfredo sauce, yes from a jar… mushrooms and onions make a fine dining meal in minutes.
I have too many ingredients left in the refrigerator that just scream to me to keep making tacos with different ingredients. The dry rub is essentially the same, but what makes these tacos different each time is what you put on them. You just can’t make this taste bad!
Flaky pastry surrounding the flavored elk with onions and tomato’s infused with spicy cumin and chipotle chili seasonings… and then topped with creamy and fresh guacamole. Can you say YUM?
The key to the success of this dish is to never ever overcook your elk steaks. That… and of course, searing the meat directly in the pan that the bacon, mushrooms and marsala wine just came from. The bacon grease that seasons the pan will leave an amazingly flavorful outer crust on each piece of meat that will leave you wanting more.
Figuring out ways to cook tough cuts of meat can be difficult at times, but braising your meat for several hours creates a savory and rich outcome direct to your dinner plate.
Mini-Elk Meatball Strogonoff
Looking for a delicious meal that really does take less than 35 minutes to prepare… then you can’t beat a good Stroganoff meal. I enjoy making my stroganoff’s a little different than most. I keep the sauce off the noodles and simply add to the top of the dish.
