Hot Pheasant Tamalas

It seems every year I get a little overzealous with my pepper planting. I end up with a ton of hot peppers in the garden, way more than I could ever use. I’ve been struggling to come up with ways to use them all. I’ve been adding peppers to breakfast eggs each morning, but that only uses so many of them. I’ve made crushed dried peppers by dehydrating them, then adding them to a coffee grinder. I’ve recently started making my own hot sauce, I’ve made Jalapeno hot sauce, serrano hot sauce, Cayenne hot sauce, Habanero hot sauce and kind of a pepper medley that just a bunch of different peppers fermented together. I have so much hot sauce, I’ve been adding it to pretty much everything. I just can’t use it fast enough. Here is one of the recipes I made to help me deal with my pepper surplus. Hot Pheasant Tamales!!



If you’re going to work with hot peppers, you might want to invest in some disposable gloves. Once the peppers oils get on your fingers, it’s going to burn wherever you accidently touch. If you end up cooking your hot sauce down to thicken it up, make sure you do it outside!! Your whole house with be coughing and complaining if you heat this hot pepper sauce up indoors.

These hot tamales are time consuming to make, but it makes a lot and it’s worth the effort.

You may think cooking and recipes don’t have much to do with a website dedicated to hunting dogs ... but really, why do we hunt? Sure, we enjoy watching our dogs work in the field and being outdoors, but ultimately, hunting is about survival and feeding our families. We might as well try to do it well. I'm not a chef and definitely no food authority ... but I do like to eat and enjoy cooking. After searching for people willing to share their recipes on Gundog Central, without much success, I decided to try to do a few on my own, with my wife Tami's help. The recipes I share here are things I like to eat and have made here at home. I've tried to include step-by-step instructions with each meal describing exactly how I did it, but my method may not be best, if you decide to try a recipe posted here, please use whatever technique you think works best, I'm simply sharing how I did it. You'll see a lot of recipes where I've tried to make things from starch, when I could have just used store bought ingredients, simply because I wanted to learn how something was done. My goal is to continually update these recipes as I learn new things and techniques. These are my attempts at creating good, home cooked food, that I would like to eat! If I'm sharing it here, my family and I enjoyed it and I believe you will too.

Dan Dan Pheasant Noodles

Posted on Wednesday 31st December 1969 06:00:00 PM

My morning routine usually involves a hot cup of coffee and me trying to clear the sleep out of my eyes enough to be able to read the morning news. On one particular morning, I was drinking my coffee and scrolling through the news on my phone when I saw a recipe for Dan-Dan Noodles. I'm not really a big Asian food, but when I saw the picture I knew immediately that I wanted to make something similar to it. I spent the rest of my day trying to figure out how I could do this with the ingredients I had at home. This version isn't going to be authentic, I'm not using any pork or Sichuan peppers, but it still turned out pretty good.

Pheasant Bird Dog with Kansas City Style BBQ Sauce

Posted on Wednesday 31st December 1969 06:00:00 PM

Have you seen these `Bird Dawgs` that Buffalo Wild Wings sells? It’s basically a chicken strip on a hot dog bun, with BBQ or Buffalo sauce, Cole Slaw and Green Onions. I got a few the other day for lunch smothered in Buffalo sauce, pictured below, however they left the Slaw and Onions off mine. I was looking for something to do with the left-over KC BBQ sauce I made in my last recipe post and decided to attempt to do my own version of BWWs `Bird Dawg` style sandwich. This is my Pheasant Bird Dog with Kansas City Style BBQ Sauce.

Pheasant Bolognese with Kale and Parmesan

Posted on Wednesday 31st December 1969 06:00:00 PM

If you read my last recipe post, the one about Smoked Chukar White Lasagna, you'll know that I've been blessed with an abundance of Kale in my little backyard garden this year. This Pheasant Bolognese with Kale and Parmesan recipe, is just another way that I found to deal my little Kale problem. This is just one of several recipes that I've made or have plans to make that will feature my backyard Kale. My little backyard garden is overrun with the stuff and it's growing faster than I can use it. While this recipe might have been posted as a way to deal with my Kale, it's really inspired by a Chicken Bolognese that my wife made a few months ago. She's a pasta freak, she absolutely loves it!! I think I've written about it before in another recipe post. Any way ... my wife made a Bolognese one night after work, she said she wanted to try something different, other than her regular, go to pasta dishes like Pasta Carbonara, Cacio e Pepe and Bucatini Allamatriciana. Let me tell you, it was freaking AMAZING!!! She knocked it out of the park when she made it! It was so freaking good ... I knew I wanted to try something like it for Gundog Central. You'll be disappointed to learn that the recipe I'm posting here, isn't a copy of her recipe!!
