Calling all anglers, hunters, outdoorspeople, and cooks! Essential Fish and Game Cookbook is jam-packed with ways for you to enjoy mouthwatering, wholesome meals — from shore lunches to gourmet dinners — using the fish you've caught and the wild game you've harvested!

These delicious recipes are made with locally sourced, seasonal ingredients and are user-friendly, with few ingredients and preparation steps. Learn the differences in how to cook wild fish and game versus the meat you find at the grocery store. For example, domestic turkeys can be cooked as one full piece and will be juicy and delicious; whereas wild turkeys need to be broken down and cooked in parts because the differences in muscle, fat, and sinew require different times and temperatures.
