In Norway we hunt alot of grouse and there is one recipe I go to every time. Go to Ikea and buy a glass of lingon berry jam, some bacon and some loaf(white bread) made bye a baker. Cut a slice of bread about 4 cm thick with good butter. Then you put 2 slices of bacon around the breast of grouse and put it over fire. Then you add three-four tbs of lingonberry jam to ½-1 cup of sourcream. When the grouse is done, you put it on the slice of bread then add the sourcream mix on top. You never eat grouse another way. If you fry some mushroom on the fire as well you eat like a king.
Keep the high quality re-releases coming. Love the high fidelity 1080p encoding--- Much better than when I watched on Netflix and your website years ago!
Growing up hunting grouse in the northern LP in thick swamp and aspen, it amazes me that a relative of the ruff grouse would live in such seemingly open lands. Definitely a much needed trip someday, or even for upland birds in the plains.
Sage grouse are active in the early morning and evening, and like to lay under brush in the hot mid-day. When frying sage grouse, you don't wanna cook them for too long or else it will be tough meat 👍🏽
Man. Sage grouse hunting looks fun. There has been some great sage grouse rehabilitation where I am in Central WA. Starting to see more of them around. Pretty cool. I love grouse so much. To me they are such an interesting bird. So "simple" yet so good at survival. They really can put up a challenging hunt if you step off the roads.
Holy 💩 when he started sauteeing the heart and liver I got the biggest nostalgia flash of my life. Grew up eating pheasant and quail wings and all kinds of liver, gizzard and hearts.
Ronny seemed like he wanted to do as little walking as possible. Multiple times he would say, "why don't you go walk up there, and I'll just stay put in this low area..." or, "are we going back to the truck now, or...?" :D
My first sage grouse hunt was when I was new to hunting at all and all I had was a 35 pound re-curve take down bow that my brother and I learned to shoot. Well, I might add. I had a couple of arrows with blunt points (dum-dum) on them. I figured on hitting one on the ground since in school we had approached these during class and I figured I could get a shot. My hunting companion later said I looked impressive. He was kind enough to gift me one of the birds he had shot with a shotgun. I immediately entered the market for a shotgun.
I'm thankful there are lots of Sage Grouse on my reservation. Not many of the people hunt them anymore so there's a decent population and ain't too hard to find.
I think he rolls his own lil cigarillos, i seem to remember something on an earlier episode about it. But that would be dope if he was chiefin on a blunt
I’ve lived in northern Nevada my entire life and have only seen one sage grouse in my front yard lol. I have seen some snowcocks up in the rubies but those aren’t native. The grouse population is having a hard time with the damn feral horses and pinyon/juniper encroachment
I dig the hunts you go on. From the high price hunts that most of us can't afford, to the small time public land hunts many go on. New to hunting and share your stuff with my son. He play D2 football, while studying to be a veterinarian. He's super 2a, loves animals, believes in providing for your family over trophies, and wants to one day be able to afford to support conservation groups, as well as buy land to start up an area himself. Thanks for helping raise a good young man, and best of luck with future content as well as life, and hunts.
My old man grew up in Eastern Montana...He talked about mixed flocks of sharptails and sage hens numbering in the 100's....that was in the late 40's early 50's....All the locals were of the opinion that sage hens were unfit to eat.....they all wanted to shoot pheasants...... Now they are all but gone.
Holy smokes what I would give for grouse territory like that. We've got the North Woods for Sharp/Ruffed/Spruce grouse here and every few steps I'm dodging branches.
Have a short story recommendation for meateater, I though of your program when I read this. The book is "River Teeth." The short story in this book is "not rocking the boats"
After hunting in the Northwest many years and covering many miles in the desert and hunting sage grouse along with following the politics connect to to it, my opinion is the decline of the sage grouse is over grazing with cattle. I'm all for balanced grazing, but not overgrazing.

This sounds like you might as well just do this in a day you want to go on a long hike. Don’t even look at the day as a hunting trip. Look at it as of it were an all day bird watching hike where you might be able shoot some of em.
For being animal smart….steve should know that you let the rabbit sit and cool off and the fleas will leave the carcass when it’s not warm anymore….you never stick it straight into your vest 🙄
I am going on my first ever pheasant hunt on November 17 it is at a hunt club so they are not wild I I like it I will go out west and do the real thing. My buddy is a member of the hunt club he set it up for me and my dad all 3 of us are hunting total of I think 20 birds. I bin shooting trap a lot very excited for the hunt this will be the first game bird hunt I will ever go on I have hunted all my life for white tail went hog hunting and squirrel hunting but never pheasant hunt
I love seeing guys give steve shit. Yeah, he's a big hunter media personality shaping the industry, but he's also just a guy who got fleas from the rabbit he shot when he ahiulda been watchin' for birds and his buddy won't let him off for it lol
Bro got fleas from that jackrabbit and still wanted to keep hunting after Ronny was done. Steve, you’re a savage!
Man, fleas and ticks are the WORST.. I dont blame Ronny for wanting to pack it in lmaoooo
Steve is such a positive go get em attitude guy. He got trichinosis and just brushes it off. Swell attitude.
I kinda cant wait for when Steve is like 75 and he just films himself sitting in a deer blind spitting his wisdom as he waits for deer to come by.
And it’s a different show haha
His narrative and written word are impeccable
What wisdom???
@@JamesClark-lw6swdon’t hate he has more wisdom then any other person his age. You damn key board warrior
@@JamesClark-lw6sw just watch some of his stuff, after a few episodes youll see.
I love how he said, "What if I die from it?" as he takes a drag on a cigarette..
Cigarettes are at least enjoyable, fleas are not.

The banter of best friends in frustrations and success is always entertaining and awesome to watch…especially these two
one of my favourite episodes. wish you guys did more upland bird episodes in general.
Only hunting show I’ll watch the reruns. These guys produce a great show glad to see them become so successful they earned it.
Ronny is hands down one of my favorite guests to watch. Him and that southern crawfish/rice grower. I think his name was Bud.
What episode is that?
@@Dudeman778 308
@@cj7069 thank you, i thought you meant an episode of the show rather than the podcast
Always a fun episode when these two guys are together. Old friends catching up with each other doing some hunting.
Keep the high quality re-releases coming. Love the high fidelity 1080p encoding--- Much better than when I watched on Netflix and your website years ago!
Ronny is one of the only folk that gives Steve shit. love it.
Ronnie the legend.
I just re-watched the old dusky grouse video with Ronnie. So glad to see there are more hunts with him
Growing up hunting grouse in the northern LP in thick swamp and aspen, it amazes me that a relative of the ruff grouse would live in such seemingly open lands. Definitely a much needed trip someday, or even for upland birds in the plains.
Ronny is in the top 4 of my favorite guests you've ever had.
I love this kind of angry hunting buddy!
Lol, We all have one.
You two need to do more hunts together. I for one really enjoy them , lost my best hunting buddy 12 yes ago and it really sux
I'm sorry for your loss. Tell your hunting stories and he lives on. I feel confident in saying, he still hunts with you, every time you go.
Two guys in the outdoors. Good banter and good food in the end. That's the life🎉
You shoot so well, every shot is precise and impressive!
I really like the friendship between Steve and Ronny. :)
Everyone needs someone like Ronnie in their life 🤣
I love these re-runs

Awesome flushing Labs! Never seen white and orange ones, but man can they flush! MeatEater and Ronnie are gonna MSGA - "Make Smoking Great Again"!
That's what's life's about right there . Eddie McGowan was mine . U can never take back so much memories 😊 miss u buddy
Love all the meat eater content, but I have to say the best episodes are when Ron and Steve get together.
loved hunting sage grouse with my dad when I was kid in Wyoming..
I love Ronny hes my favorite. Him and the dogs need a show lol
Those flees ain’t no joke I just had them tear me up 😂
this was a good cook - nice variety of cuts and methods
Holy 💩 when he started sauteeing the heart and liver I got the biggest nostalgia flash of my life. Grew up eating pheasant and quail wings and all kinds of liver, gizzard and hearts.

I come for the hunting, but stay for the cooking!

As soon as he picked up that rabbit I was like “ enjoy the fleas!”
Gov's a gun! I'd vote for him 100%!
The way you describe things is like the voice in my head speaking.
Wish someone would make a grouse looking camo or a owl colored camo. They seem to have the right color and pixelation that just blends in.
It looked for all the world like Homie Ron was smokin a blunt! It was split and rolled!
I think he rolls his own lil cigarillos, i seem to remember something on an earlier episode about it. But that would be dope if he was chiefin on a blunt
@@bumpoclock agreed lol
@@bumpoclock I know Steve has to chief once in awhile. He's definitely a lush. But he hangs with Joe Rogan too much not to chief too.
I wish I was as cool of a cat as Steven Rinella 😎. He reminds me of my friend's older brother.
I’ve lived in northern Nevada my entire life and have only seen one sage grouse in my front yard lol. I have seen some snowcocks up in the rubies but those aren’t native. The grouse population is having a hard time with the damn feral horses and pinyon/juniper encroachment
I have seen a roughed almost this big in bc canada. It unreal the size range in this species
Come on out to Utah, we have lots of sage grouse! I can take you out for some!
Excellent show! Makes me want to hunt a sage grouse. Sadly its been extirpated from BC
This was absolutely amazing
Steve. Stevo.. hey... did you think for one second to ask a local expert where the birds were? Dude the Badger was right there! WTF Man?! 😂
Man!
It don't get no better than that!
pleaaaaase give us more seasons of MeatEater
Steve please do a video with Eric Forester hunting chukars. If you combine it with wild sheep hunting it is going to turn into an epic.
Alot smoother than the Mountain Grouse episode lol
Nice touch on the Modelo 😮💨

Yay! One more in. I liked!
These two are great together, lol.
I’ve been in the dog trial fields with Ron while apprenticing to judge and I’d love to go on a hunt with both of yall for sharptail and huns
Love this guy
More hunts w/ Ronny and Kevin Murphy please!
My old man grew up in Eastern Montana...He talked about mixed flocks of sharptails and sage hens numbering in the 100's....that was in the late 40's early 50's....All the locals were of the opinion that sage hens were unfit to eat.....they all wanted to shoot pheasants......
Now they are all but gone.
Loved the B-52 comment in the into
I enjoyed your hunt even if he didn't look happy but it looks like the meat had a delicious touch to your pallet
Love that Wyoming senator
Holy smokes what I would give for grouse territory like that. We've got the North Woods for Sharp/Ruffed/Spruce grouse here and every few steps I'm dodging branches.
Great episode!
I am itching right now, and am not even there 🙆🏽♂️
Love them dogs.
Ronny Boehme is a legend. I love that he'll disagree with Steve (agreeably)...
Well. I now see where Ron got the intro for his podcast.
Please make a video in North Dakota, we have tons of sage grouse
Im all about the spruce and ruffies up here in alaska
Great all around !!
Man, I like most of his videos, I really wish he would create a channel to dub his videos to Brazil
You two should hunt more. I laughed more at this episode than any other.
Steve when you decide to come to Oregon to hunt birds look me up we have grouse stacked like cord wood son
I just love their relationship hahah
Awesome episode
You should go try ptarmigan in Alaska , seen outdoorboys try a lot
Saying sage grouse tastes like venison tenderloin 🤣… More like venison liver with the texture of 8oz boot leather!
These bots in the comments with the ass pictures that type out random shit are hilarious. What a time to be alive.
Worship the Robots!
More upland, please!

You can tell they are good friends because they bicker like an old married couple 😂😂😂😂
What kind of vest are they wearing? I love the flat bottom game bag.
After hunting in the Northwest many years and covering many miles in the desert and hunting sage grouse along with following the politics connect to to it, my opinion is the decline of the sage grouse is over grazing with cattle. I'm all for balanced grazing, but not overgrazing.
I'm curious, what shotshell did you use on this hunt? Looks like there were no pellets in the meat.
I’ve learned to let the rabbit sit for at least for an hour so all the fleas jump ship
