Hank seems like such a cool guy! you should get him on the show more

[@Zorrostunts]

Who else would love to get to hunt with Steve? I know it would be one hell of a experience

[@remyphilly5168]

I've never been hunting. He made me appreciate it and not judge those who do. Only the trophy hunters, who hunt endangered animals still irk tf outta me

[@coltonlane8043]

Don’t even have to hunt with him, even though that would be amazing, just a beer or two on the back porch to talk with the guy. After watching all of his stuff and reading his books, he’s more of a best friend to me now

[@jp05598]

@@remyphilly5168 me too and while I wouldn’t do it when explained to me that the hunters’ money to do so goes towards conservation and expansion of that animal’s habitat and they kill older animals near death to preserve the younger animals who haven’t reproduced and without said money, the species would be in a tougher spot than if the hunter hadn’t bought the right to do it, I understand it a little better. It seems counterintuitive and ass backwards but hunters’ money is the biggest thing protecting these animals because there are no funds to do so otherwise

[@zulu695]

I use to have that dream but after he lied about Africa things changed this guy lied about Africans eating dog's because he eat dog's he thinks now he can just mislead people's

[@Sickofitall-76]

That was a fun one and Hank has a great attitude when getting skunked! Those dishes looked delicious!

[@deanclarke4165]

Love this show! Meateaters shows the many sides of hunting, the prep, sometimes the journey, the trials of the hunt, and the rewards. The rewards not necessarily being getting the deer, elk, or pig, but just doing it, and putting your feet back on the ground and trying to understand the shifting patterns/problems involved in a hunt in an effort to get the prey. Also the photography and locations are great! Keep it Steve!

Nothing like eating what you just harvested in camp. Hunting in Cali can be a real challenge. Hot days and lower success rates are the norm, but great food under a shady tree with good friends and cold beer makes it pretty darn tolerable! Another great meateater episode!👍

Okay, "Jägerschnitzel" are a story into itself and German history. In West Germany it involved a slice of beef or pork pounded, floured, dipped egg and breadcrumbs. The East Germany version used a sausage, "Jägerwurst" crumbread coated deep fried. The coating keeps the moisture in its meat filling when slowly pan fried as with any schnitzel.

[@tomphillips3162]

When I was a kid the town would have a competition to see who could make the best jackrabbit recipe. The rabbit being as lean as it is can have its flavor changed more than any other animal. One year someone won making it into a peach kobler desert.
