    Huntavore - Escaping the Kitchen Rut Part 2

    In part two of this conversation, Nick and Chris of Okayest Cook, explore various themes surrounding hunting, cooking, and self-sufficiency. They share personal experiences from the hunting season, discuss the joys of cooking with wild game, and delve into the importance of creativity in the kitchen. The discussion also touches on the challenges of breaking out of cooking ruts, the art of making soups and stocks, and the benefits of canning meat for future use. Throughout the conversation, the hosts encourage listeners to share their own experiences and ideas, fostering a sense of community among food enthusiasts. In this episode, we reflect on how each hunting season brings valuable lessons, experiences, and a deeper sense of purpose to the food we prepare. We discuss how self-sufficiency in the kitchen enhances not only the flavor of meals but also the satisfaction that comes from making something entirely your own. From starting a podcast as a way to share a passion for food to finding inspiration through audience engagement, we explore how community can spark creativity. We also talk about breaking out of cooking ruts by rethinking everyday ingredients—using ground meat in versatile ways, transforming leftovers into something special, and relying on staples like soups and stocks to elevate any dish. Finally, we touch on practical skills like canning meat for long-term preservation, showing how thoughtful preparation today can shape meals for the future while strengthening both creativity and connection around the table.

    Hound Dog Network - A New Year’s Rant

    Fresh off his annual New Year’s trip to South Carolina to attend the Grand American Coon Hunt, Steve takes the opportunity to unload some baggage he brought back from the competition events. With a background in registry administration, Steve fully understands the challenges the registries face in maintaining enthusiasm for their events, often on a playing field that can appear to be anything but level at times. Games must have participants and Steve fears today’s climate may be discouraging more players than it encourages. In this episode Steve confesses that the system designed by the game’s founders may not be working in today’s climate.  The old hunter challenges the powers that be to come up with solutions that put honor back in the game, that rewards the best hound rather than the best argument from the most talented lawyer on the cast.  Listeners, depending on which camp they find themselves, purist or pugilist, will at least enjoy hearing the old man bump his blood pressure up a degree or two.  In this one, Steve has gone looking for ways to bring out our best when the worst seems so easy to do.  We would like to thank those who support this podcast.  Special thanks to Double U Hunting Supply for sponsoring this episode.   www.dusupply.com https://www.youtube.com/@DoubleUHuntingSupply/podcasts Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
