In case everyone does not know...... I had never met Whip until Compton this year, but had heard nothing but good things about him from DW and Skyler. Yes, they were all true ! Normally don't take up to well with Yanks but Whip and the wifey are about the nicest folks I have met in a while, haha ! The first day at Compton Skyler introduced Mason and I to Whip and his wife at their booth.
On Sat night at Compton we found our way to Whip's camp to hang out with Whip, his wife, Fletcher, 4Runr,Raginbull and wife and Shaun. Me, Mason, and Skyler were trying to head back to our hotel but they just would not let us leave and kept feeding us off the fire. I have to admit I had serious doubts about Whip's cooking skills as I watched him throw a cow elk roast on the campfire grill whole, very little seasoning..... We had never had elk and always wanted it. I was thinking, " I finally have a chance to try prime elk and Whip is going to turn this into a dried up piece of leather ? "
Boy, did I ever eat this thoughts and some of the best elk on the planet ! After he crusted the whole roast on the first side he sliced it into steak size slices and rolled them onto their sides. A few more minutes and pulled them off still med rare. Got to really taste what elk tastes like due to them not being covered up with seasoning or marinade. I think I would eat shoes if Whip is doing the cookin ! Good luck in Wyoming my friend !
