"The Wild Chef"

[ThunderLund78]

I recieved this book as a Christmans present this year. It's all recipies from Field & Stream magazine's Wild Chef Column. It's not just a cookbook, it's actaully something you can sit down and read. Every recipe has a story or history and interesting side-notes, etc. It also covers the basics of butchering, dressing all game from big to small, etc. And just looking at the pictures for 5 minutes will have you drooling.

My one complaint is that some of the recipes have ingredients that are not always readily available or are very expensive. But for the most part they're easy to follow and very doable for even the amature chef. I think the variety of squirell and rabbit dishes will be enough to get me back into small game hunting this coming fall.

If you see it in your local bookstore or sporting goods store, check it out!
