The Sporting Chef Scott Leysath

Guest: Scott Leysath — The Sporting Chef Episode: Field-to-Table Made Simple

What’s inside (quick hits):

• The three biggest mistakes that make wild game “gamey”—and how to fix them

• Field care that actually matters (cooling, cleanliness, trim)

• Cut-to-method pairings for deer, elk, upland, and waterfowl

• Weeknight formulas: fast marinades, hot-and-fast sears, smart sides

• Gateway dishes that win over non-hunters (and why they work)

Takeaway: Respect the animal, manage heat and fat, add acid and texture—great wild game is technique, not luck.
