RECIPES IN THE ROUGH
Susan Ebert
Susan Ebert has been an avid outdoor
enthusiast since her early childhood.
She began hunting, fishing, foraging,
gardening, and cooking on the family
farm in Kentucky. As she grew, she
quickly moved on to extensive studies
in graphic design and creative writing.
In the 80s, Susan moved to Austin,
Texas for graduate school and worked
for Texas Monthly.
Susan also worked as publisher and
editor of Texas Parks & Wildlife magazine. She currently writes cooking
pieces about wild game and fish for
Texas Sporting Journal and the Houston Chronicle. Self-solidifying a spot
amongst the top in her field, Susan has
inspired us all, and paved the way for
huntresses and the environmentally
passionate to explore every aspect of
what they love.
Her first cookbook, titled, The Field to
Table Cookbook: Gardening, Foraging,
Fishing, and Hunting, is a work that displays her many devotions all at once.
With more than 100 illustrative and
beautiful photos to accompany her
recipes and tips, the book offers visual
adaptations of her expansive array of
gastronomical and organic, farm-to-table knowledge. The book “brings more
than 150 family-pleasing, nutritious,
and accessible recipes to home cooks
who want to increase their knowledge
80 Fall 2016 Adventure Outdoors
and enjoyment of procuring and cooking clean, organic meat, fish, fruits, and
vegetables.”
The hard work that Ebert put into her
love of the wild things, even when she
was an overwhelmed single mother
to two young children, is what has
evolved her into an expert of all things
to hunt, preserve, and assemble, from
forest to fork. The farm-to-table cooking trend has become more popular
than ever, and with The Field to Table
Cookbook, you will gain some of her
invaluable skills and learn the basic
rules-of-thumb when it comes to this
ancient, yet trusted method.
Susan Ebert has developed original
recipes from start to finish, and already has mouths watering across
America with them. Here, she shares
savory creations, such as Venison Rib
Roast, which offer a fresh and fun new
light, in which you’ll
welcomingly shed onto
your dinner table in no
time.
“Now, let’s get
outdoors … and
then let’s get
cookin’!”
