Game Suppers

[Alice Levitt]

Because I've already committed to the Farmers' Dinner at the Kitchen Table, I am going to be missing the Danville Old Fashioned Game Supper. No venison, moose, bear, rabbit or beaver for me.

I go to the game dinner at the Church of the Holy Child in Essex every year. Last year I dug into bear pot roast next to a visiting French monk in sack cloth.

Thing is, I don't know if I can wait until that dinner, which happens in February. Does anyone have recommendations? I am willing to travel.

I'd like to know, too. I haven't been to a game supper since I was little. I grew up in Waterville, VT. I remember all the meat dishes, of course, but also lots of 1950s style casseroles made with canned soup and topped with cornflakes or canned fried onions, and a rainbow of gloopy ambrosia salads. I also remember people finding the occasional buckshot pellet in their venison.

I'd love to go to the Danville one, but it's just too far away.

There are some listed in this 2007 article by some chick named Susanne Podhaizer:

I don't think I'd want to drive more than, say, an hour away from the Montpelier/Barre area for one, but I'd really like to go to one.   I love game. Though I think I'd have to go with someone other than my husband. He doesn't like game at all. *mumble*
