I love a regular beef chilli, but this venison version is something else! Using a combination of diced haunch and venison mince gives the dish a real depth of flavour and a great texture.
Duck really lends itself to strong flavour pairings. This recipe uses Ras El Hanout which literally translates as “top of the shop” meaning the best spices from the top shelf of your local bazaar.
A modern version of a classic pairing, Hoisin and Duck are an absolute classic I never tire of. Updated here to include pickled radishes, which beautifully cut through the richness of the sauce.
Duck and spiced Red cabbage are a match made in heaven (Devon) particularly when you add a good lashing of local cider.
This is a great lamb recipe for the barbecue - a whole butterflied leg of lamb coated in an allspice , garlic, lemon and thyme rub - superb on the BBQ.
A delicious melt-in-the-mouth slow cook shoulder of lamb infused with the flavours of Earl Grey tea, fresh rosemary, thyme, honey and stock. Using only five ingredients it's a must for the weekend!
This show-stopping roast is a great dish for entertaining. When slow-roasted in this way, the lamb becomes so meltingly soft that it falls off the bone, perfect for stuffing into pockets of flatbread alongside salads, yogurt and pickles, shawarma-style. Start it the night before, so the marinade has a chance to infuse the lamb.
Goulash is a hearty stew of meat and vegetables, typically seasoned with paprika. The dish originates from Hungary and is ideally suited to our diced wild boar.

The trigger for this recipe is the typically northern Italian way of braising hare (lepre) in salmi. They put a hare into a wine marinade with onions, celery, juniper berries and and rosemary, to soften the flavour of the strong-tasting meat as well as tenderising it. Then the important thing is to let the hare cook very slowly.
The classic Japanese noodle soup is even more moreish when made with tasty roasted pheasant breasts instead of chicken. If you can’t find fresh galangal, use galangal paste as a substitute. Don’t worry, once you’ve made ramen once, you’ll want to again and again so none will go to waste!
Sumac is an incredibly versatile Middle Eastern spice with a tangy lemony taste. It pairs perfectly with full-flavoured Sutton Hoo chicken as well as game, lamb, fish and vegetables. Here, its incredible flavour creates a mouthwatering marinade, but you can also use it for dry rubs and dressings, as well as a condiment alongside salt and pepper.
Chicken noodle soup is a classic comfort food and this soul-soothing recipe is packed with flavour. The stock is made with tasty chicken wings from Sutton Hoo’s free-range slow-grown birds, while warming ginger and chilli, Thai fish sauce and coriander combine to create a vibrant and authentic Asian taste.
I don’t know anyone who doesn’t enjoy a sausage roll, but this is really a great and easy way to make them even better by adding grouse to the filling. I’ve noticed this is also a really popular dish with the kids. It’s really important you buy good-quality sausage meat to mix with the grouse
