DIY Wild venison reubens & pastrami

In this episode, Chris Waters and Jordi Ellingham get to work transforming wild venison into rich, smoky pastrami, then slicing it up thin for some mouth-watering Reuben sandwiches — all part of the food prep for Season 3 of The Huntsman.

They walk through the full process: curing, seasoning, smoking, slicing, and finally grilling up a few classic Reubens layered with sauerkraut, nutty cheese, homemade Russian dressing, and some cruncy bread.

To get that perfect deli-style thin cut on the pastrami, they use the Carnivore Collective meat slicer, making the job fast, clean, and consistent — ideal for camp meals or freezer prep.

The Huntsman Season 3 is coming soon!

Season 2 of The Huntsman took us further and deeper than ever before.

From the misty gullies of the Darling Downs to the rugged slopes of the Victorian high country, and across the saltbush plains of South Australia — we chased big fallow bucks, chital stags, camel, and water buffalo through some of the most iconic and varied hunting country in Australia.

We’ve pulled together a highlight reel of the best moments from the season… and we are not too far now from what’s coming next. 👀

Season 3 is just around the corner!

Familiar faces faces. Epic and challenging hunts. High Country campfires. You’re not going to want to miss this.

Watch the reel and get ready.

Wild Venison Curry | Chettinad Style

We’re back in the kitchen with Chef Jordi for another wild game cook-up — and this time we’re turning fallow deer venison into a rich, spicy Southern Chettinad curry! 🍛🔥

We’re keeping it simple (and delicious) by using The Spice Tailor’s Southern Chettinad curry kit and dialing things up with Carnivore Collective’s SPG seasoning. If you’ve got venison in the freezer, this one’s a must-try.

Also… Chris can’t help but stir the pot (literally and figuratively) over how Jordi pronounces “yoghurt.” You’ve been warned.
