I Love Kevin as a part of Meateater. This kind of content brings the hunt full circle, true to their name. His presence really elevates the quality of a cooking special!
Could watch Steve and Kevin cook and talk for hours, really hope we get more vids like this. And Kevin was so damn right about learning the value of wild game! Love his passion and energy
I’m starting to understand what Gillespie stated near the end of the video. Wild game is the pinnacle. How fortunate are we to harvest and eat such awesome, different, and a variety of meat that a majority will never try or get the opportunity to try. God bless hunters.
I just love this channel. I enjoy watching the hunt, the camp cooking, the kitchen time the talking about hunting ethics and opportunity lost and respect given to the animals. I’m no savage hunter but I am thankful for every opportunity to enjoy nature and enjoy the fruits of its labor and feeding my family from nature. Thank you Steve for showing the world what so many hunters are truly about.
I'm a 1st generation American. My family is from central Mexico. They taught me how to cook traditional meals from cous deer and javelin. This recipe looks great. I'll be moving to Colorado soon and mountain goat is definitely on my list of game to pursue
Chef said it best. Having a chance to be creative and have a delicious meal. Hunting is fun and challenging. Getting in the kitchen and cooking game meats is the best. Steve R is the current trend setter. Best cook series, best show, and DIY hunts. Most importantly, showing ppl all of the animal is useful.
What makes this episode is Chef Gillespie’s passion for the food. Hell yeah, man! Don’t make the food pedestrian; make it something special, because it is something special!
My dude actually impressed me with that Torta. Using the beans as a spread, he’s been places. ✊🏽 I would drizzle some Mexican Crema and good salsa over it. Also squeeze lime/lemon juice for a little more razzle dazzle. 🤝
He’s right nothing feels better than hunting and bringing it to the table for friends and family , providing with your own skills .Great vid meat eater love it 👍👍
Yet another reason why you guys are the best at what you do. Quality content that stirs interest and creativity among those that get to consume it. Absolutely love everything that these guys put out.
I really enjoyed this video. I am glad to see that I am not the only one that cooks with grease. I like to use several methods to cook, but for a quick meal frying not only tastes great but if you are an active person you will work it out or sweat it out before it harms your body. I like that not only is your meat harvested for food, but you also have a garden with all kinds of veg. which keeps your meal organic.
Great episode, yes when I'm hunting I do think of recipes and different things to try, one of the best thing I cooked was some pheasant sausage that I found at the bottom of the freezer about a year later. Ground it up with herbs from the garden and a couple spicy peppers 🌶 sausage turned out get
Kevin spoke some real powerful words, people see that wrapped stake and think its the best when really the best is the one that was flying just hours ago.
Loved this!! I’m one of those guilty of loving great food and not doing justice by my hard won meat. I usually end up making plain meals with it. Your food making videos are as exciting for me to watch as the hunting ones. Thank you!!!
What are the odds you make MeatEater Cooks it’s own standing weekly or twice weekly show? I really enjoy watching you cook recipes, especially ungulates. I think this would be an awesome addition to your portfolio/ lineup.
As a hunter, butcher and chef, his words are spot on. I have cooked seriously expensive cuts of meat, and they still aren't as good as a backstrap from a whitetail. But whether you hunt or not, if you consume meat, you owe it to the animal and to yourself to be part of the full process. From kill to cook, get involved in your food. You won't regret it.
If anybody is unfamiliar with Kevin, check him out. He's an amazing chef and while I have no idea about him on a personal level, he seems like a crazy nice guy. He's gold. They can have him on every episode as far as I'm concerned. This was money.
So awesome to hear people speak about honoring where food comes from and all that goes into doing right by the land and animals. I believe we can and should raise beef, lamb and pork in a way that's only one click away from wild game. What do you think?
I feel like Kevin's rant about appreciating their kill by cooking it better was not planned, but he was going off and everyone let it happen. I'm here for it!
I genuinely do not like half the ingredients in that sandwich - yet I'm sitting here drooling. Kudos to Kevin and Steven on somehow making goose oil and pickled radishes look like a Michelin-level meal.
Need more of this. would love to see a whole MeatEater session of nothing but cooking episods. Spend an episode per game animal would be great, really would love to see more bear cooking.
