Food in Elk Camp
« on: September 01, 2013, 10:50:49 AM »
It's not elk camp without the truffle oil, freshly picked chanterelles, huckleberry pancakes with bourbon maple syrup, blackened steaks, baby red potatoes with more truffle oil and sea salt, beef brisket, 3-2-1 smoked pork ribs, and pasta with porcini mushrooms and truffle sauce. No caviar for the first time in 4 years; disappointing, I know! There's a lot more on the menu for the ten days we'll be there, but you get the idea - no canned chili and Dinty Moore!! Let's hear some of your excellent menu items for camp.

Most I prepare ahead of time or is pre-cooked - really quick meals. I have a couple of incredible gourmet canned sauces that aren't available on the retail market that are really cool. The mushrooms I pick and trim while I'm hunting.

Ha! The size of camp has doubled this year for sure! I'm not sure it has anything to do with the food though.

Cheap caviar that you buy in a deli is salty and processed with Borax. It sucks. The good stuff isn't salty or really fishy and there's no Borax. It makes a huge difference.

Borax in caviar?  NOT.  That was bait not produced for human consumption

Unfortunately, you're incorrect sir. Much of the world's food caviar is produced with Borax. Most of the really expensive stuff from eastern Europe and Russia is. I sell caviar professionally. Believe me, I know. None of what I sell is processed that way, however.

When I'm archery hunting, my table fare usually consists of freeze dried dinners, oatmeal, trail mix, and other snacks.  A delicacy is a cold beer and Doritos back at the truck.

When we used to horsepack in, we would have bacon and eggs, chicken fried steaks, pancakes, sweet and sour pork, fajitas, and so on.  Cheese and crackers with the whiskey for appetizers.

I never knew, and use a lot each year to dry cured eggs for fishing.  I also make salmon caviar occasionally. Salt water brine for a certain amount of minutes, strain, dry in fridge, and then jar them.

Some of these elk camps sound like they have more exquisite food than any restaurant on the West Coast....do you dress in a tux and speak in stuffy Brit/French accents, too?  :P

Hunting up by Lone Butte for elk, went up last Friday and got set up but I had to work today and tomorrow, but have the rest of bow season off. Always hunt over on the Snake River near the Palouse for Deer, and love catching those big  Catfish. I hunt with 3 other guys, it cost us $60-$70.00 each for 6-10 days of hunting.
