Game recipes: how to cook venison, rabbit, pigeon and more
The shot is just the beginning. Making the most of what you bring home from the field is part of what it means to be a responsible, ethical hunter – and cooking wild game well is a skill worth developing.
Rifle Shooter’s recipes section celebrates the finest wild food Britain and beyond has to offer. From classic slow-cooked venison casseroles and roast haunches to quick weeknight rabbit dishes, pigeon salads and inventive ways with game offal, our recipes cover every level of kitchen confidence and every cut of wild meat.
We draw on expertise from some of the finest game cooks in the country – including contributors who understand both the hunting and the cooking – to bring you recipes that do justice to the quality of meat you’ve worked hard to put on the table.
