Live Fire with Larry White

Live Fire with Larry White

Author: Sportsmen's Empire June 6, 2022 Duration: 58:29

In this Episode of Huntavore, Summer has finally arrived!  Schools out, temps are up, and outdoor cooking is back.  Nick is joined by Larry White, the Wildgame Gourmet to chat about wildgame and live fire.  Larry gives some insight to meat care, making a smoke bomb to regulate your smoke output, and what his goto hardwood of choice is.  Nick does some investigating on Larry’s DIY clay oven, gets skeptical over flavored charcoal briquette, and gets excited over Larry’s dish, Chili Colorado.  Kick back and enjoy this latest episode of Huntavore.

Larry White hails from North Carolina, and enjoys playing with his wildgame and applying his culinary craft.  Larry ran a restaurant and food truck and like anyone in hospitality realized that when was starting a family, he had to make a choice.  Now he creates amazing dishes where gamey isn't even a thought.  Nick brought Larry on to chat about live fire cooking, and his construction of a DIY outdoor clay oven.  Summer is here and cooking outdoors over open flame is a great way to kick it off.  Larry loves oak on his barbecue, especially over wild pork that he takes off his home swamp.  A true property problem to plate solution.

In the two dish breakdown Larry lays out a dessert on the grill,  grilled peaches.  Sprinkle some brown sugar and drop onto some direct heat.  The peach will char and take on some smoke.  Serve with rosemary infused cream or french vanilla.  His second dish is a chili Colorado.  Not to be mistaken as a normal chili, but a hearty stew braised in a red chili sauce.

There’s a particular satisfaction that comes from a meal you’ve pursued and prepared entirely yourself, a process that begins long before the kitchen. The Huntavore digs into that entire journey, from the field to the plate. Each conversation revolves around the practical realities of harvesting wild game, the careful art of butchering, and the countless ways to transform that protein into memorable food. You’ll hear from hunters, chefs, and everyday people who find a deeper connection to what they eat through this hands-on approach. This isn’t about trophies or boasting; it’s a grounded look at the skills, ethics, and simple joys involved in sourcing your own meat. The discussions are straightforward and relatable, focusing on technique, conservation, and a genuine respect for the natural world. Tune in for honest talk about failures and successes, favorite recipes for venison or waterfowl, and the quiet fulfillment found in this age-old practice. This podcast is for anyone curious about the full story behind wild game on the table, whether you’re an experienced hunter or just beginning to consider where your food originates. It’s a celebration of self-reliance, flavor, and the tangible results of time spent in the wilderness.
