WILD FOR THE HOLIDAYS: Find out where you can learn how 
to prepare game for the holiday table…ahead on Passport 
to Texas.

This is Passport to Texas

This time of year hunting seasons begin to overlap: 
quail….duck…deer…you get the picture.

As a result, hunters—and those of us who benefit from 
knowing hunters—end up with freezers full of game 
meat. There are worse problems to have.

With the holidays on the horizon, wouldn’t a dish 
featuring game be a nice addition to your feast? Heck, 
even the Great British Baking Show had their contestants 
bake festive game pies. 

If you’re stumped when it comes to preparing wild 
proteins for the holiday table…perhaps a little hands-on 
cooking class can set you on the right course.

Texas Parks and Wildlife collaborates with Central Market 
Cooking Schools statewide to offer hands on wild game 
and fish cooking classes to the public. November’s class 
is all about dressing up game for the holidays.

Class participants will prepare: Grilled Quail with Red 
Chile Honey Glaze…Whiskey Spiced Duck with Swiss 
chard & celery root…and Venison Filet with Blueberry Pan 
Jus on Cheese Grits.

Tell me that doesn’t sound like a party waiting to happen. 
The next class is November 14, and takes place in Austin, 
San Antonio, Houston, Dallas, Fort Worth, Southlake, and 
Plano. All locations are currently accepting registrations.
