Awesome job on this meal! One tip i might add for you to try: keep the grouse legs, heart, gizzard, and liver. Gizzard is pretty easy to clean on them, and a fair addition of meat. All you have to do with the liver is find and remove the small green bile sac.

Glad you mentioned it, does feel like he is not getting everything out of the grouse that he could. Maybe just not filming it, but even with the first bird I thought he was missing out on a few choice pieces of edible meat. Seems a same to put that effort into hunting then not get everything food wise you can out of it.

I saved the rest of the grouse for another meal, but I greatly appreciate the advice! Happy trails.

Bruh that crunch 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤

As a perpetual 'city boy' within a country where this lifestyle would be practically impossible - thank you for this, I love your channel

damn that looked tasty. more meals with grouses please

Everything tastes better when your on the land - but that looks pretty damn tasty no matter where your going to serve it.

I love your videos. The real men channel. Thank you a lot)

Out there eating tendies and home fries like a king.

I wont tell if you wont.....bag them sqwidles. Lol great video man. God bless you and yours

this looks better than everything I had this month, wow

So I think that your morale is boosted automatically when your stomach experiences such a blessing. Full tummy = morale boost. Energy boost = morale boost. Incredibly, we can't disconnect our body from our souls - our whole being is interwoven and one thing. It is separately UNNATURALLY AT DEATH. But thankfully, the Christ has overcome the grave for all those who put their trust in Him. I'm an old guy now, been experiencing this life for quite some time. Just saying. Ha, what a great experience! Oh man! Mouth watering, I could almost taste it! I'm figuring you made that cooking spatula, right? Yeah, I would do the rough outback just for a taste of this wild grouse. Yummy I bet. It's fun watching you enjoy it and hoping for a repeat. Thanks Kurt.

Golfing in the kingdom. Ever read that book. A good one on a camp out.

Man I could almost taste that it look so good. Catch and cook nothing can beat that

Looks fantastic mate! 👌🏽

Always great content!!

And what do you eat the rest of the time? Do you have some fruit and vegetables or do you just eat some long-term preserved food?

Hey I honey on fried chicken I'll bet it great on grouse also great vid keep it up and thanks.

Please make a wood cutting board from a log so you don’t destroy your knife 😅 Love watching your stuff! Thanks for making it.

Really excellent. Now you can come up with your own grouse menu to take with you outdoors. Maybe fried grouse wraps with anything you like, fried grouse with mashed potatoes and gravy, fried grouse with seasoned rice and bbq sauce, barbecued grouse with mac and cheese. Nice shot! ;)

Nothing like freshly harvested upland game cooked on a campfire out on the range or marsh.....

Now I'm hungry!

Making me hungry just watching that.

Hello from Oklahoma! The Old River Rat here. Good Video! I am surprised as handy as you are with wood work, you haven't made yourself a nice cutting board. That poor aluminum plate is catching hell. I've never heard of a place where you can't hunt squirrels. We call them "tree rats" here and they are very prolific, both the fox squirrels and the greys. Thanks for all you do! God Bless!

Looking back at it I definitely should've packed or made a cutting board. My aluminum plate and stainless pan got roughed up pretty good. I've learned from my mistake and I will certainly keep a cutting board in my kit from now on. The squirrels in this area are Red Squirrels and they are a fur-bearing animal which means that their fur is worth money. Due to this the harvest of these animals is regulated to ensure they are not over-harvested. I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment. Thanks for watching and God bless!

I’m glad the squirrels are not on the menu I like them. I like to see them run free and some people have them as pets.

This dude eats better in bush than I do at home.. Nice!

Excellent shooting, beautiful nature, delicious potatoes!😊

Nice!

That’s an upgraded kid’s meal.

Excellent looking meal. That would have been 2 meals for me.

It's always extra tasty when you eat something you caught yourself! I don't hunt or trap but I fish whenever I can, and cook whatever I catch. Pretty much like nature intended us to😋

I can't believe you eat grouse also. Joe of Joe and Zack survival est grouse all the time. It reminds me of quail. Don't think I would want that kind of bird. I'm glad you caught one finally . Love your channel . I watched you the other day . Thanks for sharing.

It's just super when you can get your own food, and not depend on the supermarket!

I always enjoy your videos. Your calm demeanor and pleasant spirit help to calm me after watching the news, which is often bad. I thank you for providing us with a glimpse into your life. About this video, those of us in the Southern U.S. love ranch dressing. I especially like it on chicken so that is what I would have brought on a camp out like yours. BBQ sauce is great too. Thank you for another relaxing video!

Love the little jumping spider doing its thing in shot when talking about that bannock mix.

Nice shot! Ruffed Grouse is way different than Spruce Grouse, night and day difference in the taste department. I've hunted and eaten a lot of bird, Ruffies are one of the best eating for sure. Looked like a well deserved meal, a tasty one at that. Thanks for the video, well done.

Looks like an awesome meal. Good enough for a sick person to eat and get well

Good boy tendies in the woods?!?!? Awesome.

Par boil your potatoes before frying. slice them into thick disc's then boil until you can easily stick your fork through them, then into the frying pan, makes the best chips then.👍🏻

Love that you gave respect to the grouse. Can one get an exemption (e.g. to hunt grouse, squirrel, etc. anytime) to allow one to live off the land in Alberta? Also, what about predators? What do you do to secure your food?

@KuskBushcraft

6 ай бұрын

I've never looked into it...but I can't say I've ever heard of anything like that. I just follow the regulations and stick to the legal hunting/trapping seasons. Predators in this area are quite timid towards humans and I've never had any issues with them. I do carry bear spray and a rifle for protection just in case anything ever happened. On this trip the temperatures were staying quite cool so I didn't have any issues keeping meat for a few days. Later in this series I will be showing some meat preservation techniques though. Hope this answers your questions. Thanks for watching.

Hoping someone can help me out, I’m far far from an expert on anything wilderness, but the last time he got a grouse I remember the meat looking much redder (almost looked like duck) was he just using a different part of the bird for these strips?
