BASC - educating future chefs about the benefits of using wild game as an ingredient

[Conor O'Gorman]

For several years, BASC’s central regional team have been visiting colleges across the area to work with level 3 catering students. Over recent months they have visited some inner-city colleges to run wild game preparation and cookery masterclasses for the students. 

There are always a few raised eyebrows and squeamish faces from students when they start processing pheasants and whole deer carcasses. But it’s a credit to all the students they have taught so far that none have refused to cook with any of the meat provided. 

It must be understood that most, if not all, come from inner-city backgrounds and shooting wild animals for food is an entirely alien concept for them.
