Tennessee Outdoorsmen Cookbook: How We Catch It and How We Cook It.

After thirty years of hosting The Tennessee Outdoorsmen television show and writing outdoor stories for the Nashville Tennessean, Jimmy Holt has teamed up with outdoor/travel writer and radio personality Vernon Summerlin to create The Tennessee Outdoorsmen Cookbook. Here readers will find hundreds of recipes for preparing fish, game, and companion dishes along with Jimmy's and Vernon's anecdotes and tips on fishing, hunting, and cooking.

The cookbook features many special ways to prepare favorite fish and game, from smoking and grilling to cooking in old-fashioned Dutch ovens and modern ovens. Some recipes are family heirlooms. Many recipes were sent in by viewers and readers, who include their own stories, adding more flavor to the mix.

From soup to desserts and all the trimmings, here is the best cookbook from the best outdoor cooks in the South.
