I'm Daniel Perut, and I'm the founder of Meat Eaters Wild and Hole. I've got a new cookbook out,

my first, and I'm so excited to tell you about it. It's called Meat Eaters Wild and Hole,

and it contains more than 80 seasonal recipes inspired by which you can hunt, fish, forage,

or grow in your garden each season. Wild game and fish play a really big part in this book,

but so do the seasonal fruits and vegetables that fill my plate all year round.

You'll find recipes like smoked sage, venison tenderloin,

cottontail soup with leeks, cheesy fried morels with tomato sauce, and even desserts like

chocolate porcini mushroom, potechrim.

You'll also find my tried and true standards like Shepard's Pie, Benison enchiladas,

and the ultimate garlicky meatballs.

From that elusive weeknight recipe that the whole family will want to eat on repeat to some extra special celebratory meals, this cookbook is a result of years of recipe testing.

You'll walk away armed with the best techniques for cooking with wild ingredients and using up the game in your freezer to cook delicious, beautiful, and memorable meals.

It's meat eaters wild and whole.

Seasonal recipes for the conscious cook by me, Danielle Pruitt.

And it's out now.

Visit the meat eater.com or buy it wherever books are sold.

Thank you. My name is Clay Newcomb, and this is a production of the Bear Grease podcast called The Bear Grease Render, where we render down, dive deeper, and look behind the scenes of the actual Bear Grease podcast.

Presented by FHF Gear, American-made, purpose-built, hunting and fishing gear that's designed to be as rugged as the places we explore.

Welcome to the Bear Grease Render. Man, the Deer Stories episodes are some of my favorite of the whole year because I get to go and talk to all these people and cherry pick their stories.

That's what you do.

But usually what I don't say to the guys that I'm talking to, like Mo, is that you got to go through a bunch of duds to cherry pick the one that you pick.

Is that right, Mo? That's right mo that's right that's right how many duds did you uh that's basically i won't tell how many he's thrown in the trash
