Wildlife Recipes - Introduction

We at the Mississippi Fish and Wildlife Foundation are strong advocates of hunting and fishing. We also believe in proper utilization of the harvest.

Every concerned Mississippian knows what it's like to watch a beautiful sunset at the end of a long day afield or on the water. Those outings don't have to end at sunset. After the rods and guns have been put away, grilling a venison steak or frying up a batch of crappie is the perfect way to relive those wonderful days afield.

Preparing the bounty of our harvest should be a family affair. Sharing in the preparation and enjoyment of nature is an important part of the outdoor experience.

We encourage everyone to take at least one night per month to experiment with a new recipe. Open your favorite bottle of wine, try one of these recipes and develop a further appreciation of Mississippi's wonderful outdoors with family and friends. It's a great way to spend an evening.
