remember to tell us if its an/a appetizer entree side etc.....
include prep times, and cooking times and temps. also note whe best way to cook ie: iron frying pan, outdoor grill
if you got the recipe from a package such as lipton give them credit but make sure you include yourself as the submitter
This should be fun It will take some time but read all the recipes before submitting because if there is only one ingredient different we can just make a note after the first recipe and include the change only.
Thank you to everyone that will make this project a piece of campfire history.
I cannot claim this to be mine as I got it from a freind here in WY

Nice venison shoulder roast (three or four pounds) Fresh spinach leaves Grated Mozzarella Mushrooms Frozen Puff Pastry sheets (1 package I've had good luck with the Pepperidge farms brand) Eggs for wash
Brown the shoulder roast and put in the slow cooker. Cook long enough you can debone and shred the venison
When done, lay out the puff pastry and put in the venison, layer with sliced mushrooms, cheese and spinach leafs. Don't overfill!
Take second sheet and put on top and pinch closed. Use Egg wash on top.
Bake according the puff pastry directions, usually 350 for 30 minutes or so, until it's brown and crusty.
Slice and serve. I often make a brown gravy with slow cooker leavings and some more sliced mushrooms to go with it.

Venison backstraps or flat hind quarter roast. Texas Pete Wing Sauce Flour Breadcrumbs Old Bay Seasoning Chili Powder Canola Oil for frying
Slice venison in 1/4 to 1/8 inch slices. You might need to get it partially frozen but the thinner the better.
Soak the venison in wing sauce, and make sure it's nice and wet.
Dredge the venison in a mix of a cup of flour to a half cup of bread crumbs and about a teaspoon of Old Bay and a teaspoon of chili powder. Every seasoning listed has salt in it, but feel free to add more if you like.
Drop breaded venison into about an inch of good hot oil. Bubbles should rise immediately and you should hear the sizzle. If the oil's not hot, it will soak in and get things greasy.
I fry venison nice and crispy and eat it just the way it is. You can serve it all kinds of other ways if you like.

Hawkeye's My Sicilian Grandma's Stuffed Artichokes: (antipasto)
When I was a kid in the 1960s and '70s, I looked forward to holidays mainly because my Sicilian grandma would bring pots full of her stuffed artichokes. So delicious!
Prep Time: A half hour
Cook Time: Two and a half hours
Number Served: Four
Ingredients: Four medium artichokes, a lemon quarter, five large cloves of peeled garlic (four of them divided into about ten or twenty smaller pieces, reserving the fifth), one cup of finely grated Pecorino Romano cheese, one cup of 4C seasoned breadcrumbs, a quarter cup of chopped fresh Italian parsley, quarter cup extra virgin olive oil, about a teaspoon of salt.
Preparation: In a large, low, flat bottomed, straight walled, covered pot (big enough for four artichokes), add enough water to come up about two inches (If you cannot fit all four in one pot, use two pots). Add just enough salt so you can taste the salt in the water after it's dissolved (about a teaspoon full, but could take more if it's a very large pot). Get the water hot, then turn it down to simmer till you're ready to put the stuffed artichokes in.
Cut the top 15% off of the artichokes, thereby removing most of the thorns (I find a bread knife works well for this). Cut the stems off neatly and reserve, leaving the bottom of the artichokes flat so they can sit steady on the bottom of the pot. Take kitchen sheers and cut off all of the remaining leaf tips taking about an inch only. Wash under a forceful stream of water, using your fingers to open the leaves up a bit and run the water in there, making sure also to wash the outside. Shake out the water. Turn them upside down on a few paper towels to dry while you proceed. Peel the woody/stringy matter off the stems with a paring knife, leaving only the core. Wash and set aside.
Now prepare your garlic as stated above, but reserve one clove uncut. Stuff the pieces into the leaves starting from the outer leaves and working towards the center, making an even distribution, and pushing them all the way down. Grate the cheese and mix it with the bread crumbs and chopped Italian parsley (make sure you thoroughly dry the parsley after washing it and before chopping it). Blend well.
Using a table spoon, take spoons full of the mixture and, using the tip of the spoon to pull the leaves away slightly, pour it into the leaves, working your way around and towards the center in a circle. Pour some on top and spread the artichoke open a bit to allow it to get down in there. Put a little more on top again so you can't see the leaf tops.
Now place them in the water flat bottom down. The water should not rise to more than two inches or so on the sides of the artichokes (you don't want any of the stuffing to float out). Squeeze lemon wedges (first remove all seeds) over the tops of the artichokes and into the water. Now drizzle the olive oil on the tops and a little into the water. Now take the reserved uncut garlic clove and cut it into four parts. Add it into the water between the artichokes. Cut the stems into quarters lengthwise and submerge the pieces into to the water between the artichokes. Bring to a boil, and then quickly to a simmer. Cover tightly and adjust the heat so it's just barely bubbling, i.e., a low simmer.
Remember, with a cover, it will boil at a much lower setting, so watch it for a while to be sure it's only simmering. Once simmer is stable, set timer for two and a half hours, but check about once every half hour or so to make sure it's not rapidly boiling, and to see if the water level has dropped significantly, in which case you need to add a little more. If the lid is tight, though, this should not be a problem.
To Eat: It's an art in itself. Plate them. Open them up a little to cool. Toss on the stem quarters (delicious too). Sprinkle a little more salt on, if necessary. Take each leaf, along with a little stuffing, and use your upper or lower teeth to scrape the soft flesh of the leaves off into your mouth. Eventually, you will reach the leaves near the center which can be eaten whole (except don't eat the thorny tips).
When you get to the "choke," stop eating. Take a tea spoon (here comes the best part) and remove all the choke (discarding it), leaving the "heart" of the artichoke. This is the most delicious part. Salt it to taste. I always reserve a litte of the stuffing to eat with the heart. Enjoy.
PS Don't be concerned about the garlic. Cooked that long, it has no harsh taste to it. Just delicious.
PPS Don't throw away the broth. It's delicious too. If it's too salty, water it down. Now add a can of condensed Campbell's chicken broth to it, toss in some orzo and simmer till it's done (about twenty minutes). Put it in bowls and sprinkle on some grated Parmigiano Reggiano. We'd always enjoyed this on holidays too.

Is this just for wild game recipes? If so, my mistake.
Ok, I'll offer my wild boar scallopini with (wild) porcini mushrooms recipe.
This falls roughly into the category of Northern Italian cuisine. Wild boar hunting and gastronomy is big there. This is my personal take on it that I developed about ten years ago.
Ingredients: One small package dried porcini mushrooms, a quarter cup of chopped Italian parsley, two pounds of shoulder steaks or other suitable boar cuts that you don't wish to prepare by another method (Use remaining scraps and bones, after cutting out medallions, for making stock in advance), quarter to a half stick butter, flour, two eggs, milk, salt, pepper, quarter pound thin-sliced imported Swiss cheese, quarter pound thin-sliced imported Prosciutto, half cup of dry Italian Vermouth, half cup wild boar stock (prepared in advance using the scraps and bones) or canned chicken broth.
Prep Time: One hour (but start soaking mushrooms the night prior)
Cook Time: One hour
Number Served: Four
Method: Over night in the fridge, soak dried porcini in a cup of hot water. In the morning, reserve the liquid, but transfer the mushrooms to a plate lined with paper towels to dry them. At cooking time, they should still be fully hydrated, just not wet to the touch. Cut boar steak into roughly silver dollar sized medallions (don't worry so much about the shape), keeping them as lean as feasible. Hammer them good and flat (they will triple or more in diameter). Scramble two eggs with about a tablespoon full of milk and about a quarter teaspoon of salt and pepper. Dredge the scallopini in flour and then dip them in the eggs. Brown on both sides in some butter (just the amount you need), on medium heat and transfer them to a large casserole dish or other suitable container. Lay on top of each scallopino one thin slice of Prosciutto (fold in half if necessary to conform to the size) and one or two thin slices of Swiss cheese (cut or folded roughly to the right size). Place in oven pre-heated to 350 degrees till cheese melts. Remove and cover.
Note: You can, if you prefer, finely chop or mince the Prosciutto, sprinkle it on top of the scallopini, then cover with the Swiss cheese slices for melting.
Meanwhile, prepare the gravy. Add about half the remaining butter to the skillet. Increase heat and saute the mushrooms till browned. Remove mushrooms (set aside covered), leaving butter in skillet. Add what's left of the butter till fully melted. With heat on medium, gradually add flour and mix it around till you have about a tablespoon full of loose paste (If not, add more flour and/or butter till you do). This is called a "rue." Cook and stir the paste till it turns a medium brown. Now gradually add a mixture of the stock, the vermouth, and a half cup of the liquid in which you soaked the mushrooms, while stirring. Stir and cook on medium till it thickens. If not thick enough, you can make a little more rue on the side to stir into it. If too thick, add a little more of the reserved mushroom soaking liquid. When correct, add back the mushrooms, stir, and reheat in the gravy. Salt to taste. Plate the wild boar scallopini and sauce them with the porcini gravy. Sprinkle some chopped raw Italian parsley on top. Serve.

-1 rabbit (cottontail or snowshoe) de-boned and cut into bit-size pieces -complete pancake mix (store brand fine) -1 bottle cold beer
1. Place rabbit pieces in plastic bag and pound with meat mallet to tenderize 2. In a plastic bowl (with lid), mix beer and pancake mix to form a thick batter 3. Put tenderized pieces of rabbit into the batter and stir well to coat; put lid on bowl and refrigerate for at least an hour (overnight is OK) 4. Heat oil to 365 degrees (+/-). Drop cold, battered rabbit pieces into oil; fry til golder brown 5. Drain on paper towels; salt to taste 6. Serve and enjoy
Note: This also works well with wild turkey (good way to use thigh meat) and grouse.
5 cloves garlic 1/2 cup olive oil 1 Tablespoon oregano 1 fresh lemon seeded and juiced 2 Tablespoons balsamic or red wine vineger 1 teaspoon sea salt pepper to taste
Combine all ingredients and cuts of favorite venison loin chops several hours before grilling
4 grouse breast salt pepper 6 cups flour 2 quarts vegetable oil 4 tablespoons honey favorite BBQ sauce
Take four cleaned grouse breast, lay on cutting board and cover with plastic wrap, pound lightly with kichen mallet. Remove plastic and discard. Season lightly with salt and pepper, dredge grouse in flour, only a light coat is necessary. In a 8 qt stockpot add 2qts of vegetable oil. Heat to 350 degrees. Be sure to use a candy or other suitable high temperature thermometer to regulate the frying oil temperature. When oil is 350 use metal tongs to gently place two grouse beasts in oil, one at a time. Only fry about three minutes or untill a light golden color is achieved. Do not fully cook. Remove Grouse from oil and place on a sheet pan. Repeat process. Heat oven to 400 degrees. Drizzle each breast with 1 tablespoon of honey. Brush favorite BBQ sauce on each piece of meat. I prefer a thinner BBQ for this recipe such as stubbs. Place in oven for aproxamately 10 minutes or until an internal temp of 165 degrees is achieved. The result is a suprisingly moist and tender grouse. This works equally as well with pheasant.
