Wild + Harvested Cookbook

A Collaborative Cookbook Curated by Venku Featuring Innovative and Delicious Recipes from Chefs, Hunters, and Anglers.

We are always looking for ways to bring the outdoor community together and food is usually a common denominator. Whether or not folks agree with hunting & fishing, most do appreciate a great meal and come to respect the harvesting of wild game for the nutrition it provides.

Why a cookbook? We couldn’t think of a better way to make wild game more accessible than by showcasing the talented chefs, hunters and anglers from across the world who spend their time creating incredible meals using food they harvested themselves. They share their tried & true recipes, hacks for processing & cleaning wild game and stories behind their harvests.

This comprehensive digest includes dozens of recipes from the industry’s top contributors ranging from classic dishes to innovative eats. View or download the cookbook for free at the link below and we’re confident you’ll discover your new favorite meal.

The most delicious team

The Collaborating Chefs

The Wild + Harvested Cookbook was a labor of love. It was carfully curated through a major collaboration between the Venku Team with professional wild game chefs and home cooking enthusiasts alike. Each collaborating chef brought a unique flavor and perspective to the table that helped make Wild + Harvested a one of a kind cook book.

A huge thank you to our collaborators for making this cookbook project a success.
