One of the perks that comes with being a chef who hunts is that I'm sometimes gifted exotic foods. For example, in the past week I was given beet and mint ice cream, a box of olive oil from someone's farm in Greece, and a bag full of oryx meat that a Texas guy had…

When Lewis and Clark set out on their Corps of Discovery they struggled to find fresh meat, especially during the coldest winter months. The meat they obtained came from hunting and fishing, through trade, or through the kindness of American Indians. The Corps ate everything from dog, to whale, to horse, and because fresh meat…

I used to think of it as the strange stuff I'd see in strange gas stations on my strange cross country road trips. It was usually in stick form, a long tubular stick, wrapped in a coating of plastic, with a peculiar name like... Slim Jim, not because it made you slim, but because it…

There something about campfire eating.Maybe it's the coziness or the color. Maybe it's the flavor the wood and smoke impart on the food.I just took a trip to Arkansas and we did quite a lot of campfire eating.The very first thing I ate when I arrived were those things in the shovel. Can you see…

If I was sent to that proverbial island and there was one food I could take, it would be liver mousse. I can hear your collective gasp. Most people are reviled by the stuff, but I call it God’s pudding. It’s slightly sweet and very rich and I could eat it endlessly.It serves as the…

It ain't pretty, but it's gooood.Just remember as we go on this journey together that we believe in certain principles around here. That animal protein or vegetable protein, if you're going to eat, something has to die. And if I'm going to kill something in order to eat, then I want to use every part…

The Native Americans used to eat the warm heart of their prey in order to inherit their spirit. It was also a way to honor the animal, and use every part of it. So on my deer hunt in the Delta a few weeks ago, I decided to "go native."And I'm glad I did. It…
