Lobster mushrooms are one of those unmistakable mushrooms, and also happen to be the aftermath of two forms of fungi attacking one another. Prior to the “attack” lobster mushrooms are actually mildly poisonous until the second fungi, attaches and “attacks” the prior which is when you see the fruiting portion of this incredible mushroom breach the surface in that unmistakable “cooked lobster” orange that also has a slight aroma of crab or lobster. This Soup is a great soup when corn is abundant and sweet and fresh wild Dungeness is in peak season. It also comes together in one pot in under an hour. Add a loaf of your favorite sourdough and dam if it isn’t one of the best meals around.
The wildfire smoke cleared and the sky was blue along the Crooked River drainage for the Eagle Rock/Sanford Creek mule deer winter range protection volunteer work day. Thanks and congratulations go out to all of you, the Prineville BLM staff/volunteers, the Mule Deer Foundation and Oregon Hunters Association – Ochoco Chapter volunteers that were on hand to accomplish the long-awaited project intended to protect our wintering mule deer in the region.
This is a great option for the pile of roast cuts you have left over In the freezer by the time February comes around. You’ve cooked your primary, secondary and lesser steak cuts, you’ve made Italian beef sandwiches and pulled mule deer, and so many pot roasts, the wife and kids are sick of it. Now have to come up with something new or face the embarrassment of ordering a pizza. This is the recipe to try. It’s super simple, yet refined and easy on the tastebuds. It’s something to remind you that summer days grilling on the porch are closer than you think.
In the MDF Volunteer Spotlight segment the Mule Deer Foundation would like to call attention to a specific MDF volunteer, and bring their efforts to the forefront of our messaging. These volunteers are pivotal to the Mule Deer Foundation accomplishing our mission and it’s important that we recognize them as often as we can.
The plains appear tame as a saddled horse and wild as a mustang in the same instant. Looking out over rolling hills and grazing deer everything seems possible and notching your tag appears a certainty. Hours later on your tenth blown stalk of the day, out of water, and running from a rattling sound under a rock, you are suddenly surrounded by the wild land Hugh Glass crawled across after being mauled by a grizzly 200 years ago.
