The Sporting Chef, Scott Leysath, welcomes Jimenez to the show to share her favorite chorizo recipe. The use of elk meat, combined with a flavorful mix of spices, entices the palate and will bring the heat to any kitchen. Later in the episode, Leysath catches up with Tommy Gomes, who proves barracuda can be used for more than lyrics to a classic rock song. Mix the fish in with lemon and vegetables to fix up an unexpectedly hearty stir-fry meal. And the episode would not be complete without tips from The Sporting Chef’s resident redneck, Buddy T, on how to use a smoker to cook…winter melon? You got it. Tune in for all of these recipes and more.

“Chefs such as Susie brings so much to the table in terms of the ingredients and flavors she incorporates into her dishes,” commented Leysath. “Her chorizo recipe is a great way to use elk – or any wild game meat viewers choose – for maximum flavor. And it’s another reason why we’ve brought her on as a recurring guest this season – unending recipe ideas and inspiration!”
