Glenn Villeneuve on Eating Boiled Wolf and Caribou Stomach Contents

the Joe Rogan experience when you eat the wolf what do you eat the backstraps you do you cook the hams like how do you how do you eat a wolf the only way that I like to eat a wolf is a boil it for a good long time because wolves too will have parasites they'll have trichinosis they're meat eaters Anthony eats meat you wanna make sure it's thoroughly cooked I like to boil it boiled wolf yeah I haven't eaten a lot of wolf I've eaten wolf you know three or four times when I didn't have much else and I figured hey I better take advantage of this food I got here rather than give it to something else do you feed it to your family they've probably wolf like my kids when they're little maybe once or something like that cellairis how many people could you ask that to and they go yeah my kids probably eaten wolf I don't know like I meant these Mongolians ones and they were like oh you shoot some moles we want wolf meat we love wolf meat you know Mongolians they're all into it yeah a lot of Native Americans were into wolf meat I don't like it's my trappers we're into wolf meat well that's what they had to eat but uh yeah but some of them were actually preferred it really yeah there was something from the Lewis Clark exhibition there's another thing that expedition it was something from Rinella was telling me about some guys actually preferred wolf meat I was like their favorite favorite well domestic dog Lewis and Clark expedition they would buy dogs from the Indians and eat them because they didn't want to eat salmon they had they had fish is what I heard they could have eaten but they'd rather eat dog because they want to read me oh Jesus yeah Wow when they got way out like the Columbia River area so did you eat these wolves they shot I ate a little bit of it because I was short on food that at that time that winter you know not like the whole thing but a few meals of it so you boil it and how do you do it like onions and potatoes make a soup I didn't have anything like that no I mean no I'm out there all winter long that that was 2012-2013 there was I didn't have any vegetables do you know where I get the vegetables out of the caribou stomach what the caribou eats for plant food that's what I get for plant food in the winter that's the only so you would actually eat their stomach contents yeah really sure people's done it for thousands of years I believe you I believe they have not only that but a pickle meat in it I take tenderloins off a caribou are great pickled in their stomach contents pickled and stomach contents explain that to me how do you do that well you you've got to learn about caribou stomach because you don't want to go too far downstream it starts turning brownish but like the first the the big chamber the rumen when they eat these lichens in the winter that's what they're feeding on mm-hmm you can't eat those lichens off the ground they're harsh but when it's partially digested in a caribou stomach it actually is an edible food and the old people used to eat these a lot I read about it and I even talked to some people who had done it you know and they were kids and stuff and sure enough it's not bad stuff I got hooked on it man one winter I was eating a lot of caribou stomach contents and yeah my family wasn't into that they were like looking at me like good I don't eat that anymore basically I went as primitive as I could go and I satisfied my curiosity about living that extreme of a subsistence lifestyle so now I eat much more store-bought vegetables I eat you know normal foods but for a time there for a few years I got down to where I was eating caribou stomach contents I was doing anything I just wanted to just immerse myself in that whole environment out there I wanted to get my food right there what I could see what I could get myself just get right into it you know 15 months without even going out to town not talking to other people I mean at that time I had my wife there but just to really get into a different state of consciousness it puts you in a different state of consciousness and it's a beautiful thing and when you said pickled stomach contents yeah how do you how are you pickling a tenderloin in the stomach contents you just take the caribou you get to the right chamber of the stomach they got four chambers on their stomach you know you just cut a little slit in it just after you've pulled the guts out and you just slip the meat in there you slip it right into the room and in the contents there and what happens is assuming the temperatures about right it it will retain a lot of heat it creates heat I think the the micro organisms in there create heat because if you just bury that in snow and snow of course insulates it it'll stay warm for quite a while and if it was really cold it might not work out it might freeze solid before it pickled but if it's the right temperature the meat will turn brownish color over time and it'll be pickled that old people used to do this all the time I read about this you know 20 years ago and then I talked to people and I said yeah this is safe to do so I tried it and and there was a winner there where that's where I got a lot of my vegetables was out of the caribou stomach and the meat will just it'll it'll turn brownish first on the outer part of the mean and all the way through it and it gets pickled I've done a lot of different things with meat you know what I like to do with me a lot of people don't realize because you live in the modern world and just like me when I grew up right meats dangerous if it's wrong you got to be careful yellow like wash everything be careful actually what I found is that it just all depends on the conditions once you learn how to handle meat properly you can do a lot of things with meat that most people would be scared to death of and it's completely safe as far as I'm concerned I never had any problems with it but like moisture is very important if you buy meat in the storage wrapped in plastic that keeps it moist you let it sit around for a while it spoils and it doesn't take long leave me doubt of your refrigerated lis spoiled in a day right but if you take a muscle out of an animal and you butcher it properly you separate the muscle as one piece you don't make a bunch of cuts in the fashio you can take a muscle it's 2 or 3 inches thick don't put it in plastic don't wrap it up that'll cause it to spoil you leave it right out in the air two or three inch thick muscle I set them on a rack up high above my wood stove it's like a hundred degrees up there sometimes other times it's cold up there just varies during the day depending on how the fire is stoked right I'll let it sit there for a week ten days and then I'll eat it never cook it just let it sit there really yeah never cook it no just let it sit there so he gets a crust on the outside it gets a crust on the outside but it's too thick of a piece to dry like you would dry jerk yours right it stays moist inside it's like making cheese on it turns into something like cheese it gets different flavors you're aging it yeah you're aging it's actually fermentation that's taking place I believe it's actually a fermentation process but it takes on different flavors I really like I call it gummy me cuz that's what my kids used to call it and gummy me gummy me cuz it gets kind of gummy it's good it's good yeah it really is I wish I had something I was saying when I left Alaska I wish I had some something like that to bring Joe down but I didn't have anything so when you're was going I was looking for something about the caribou stomach and there's this thing called the polar manual made by the government yeah I think the Navy oh this is Kara back fat is better than chewing gum and it was made 1961 so it might may be even older look at this old timers from the North mention many interesting Eskimo Indian and Siberian foods pemmican I've heard of that it's the meat of bear seal caribou and walrus mixed together with fish eggs and dried to a hard frozen block trappers peaches-and-cream is chewing dried beaver tail caribou back fat is better than chewing gum don't overlook the contents of a seal stomach for a fresh fried fish dinner nor the contents of a caribou stomach mixed with the trip lining as a tasty in quotes salad of reindeer moss and lichens properly how's that word acidulated situated I like the next one there walrus milk that death gives 16 quarts of milk I love dairy products I can't get my 10 quarts of milk from a walrus I one time I was thinking about milking a caribou after I killed her but I I didn't just because she was in bad shape she'd been attacked by the wolves and she had an infection in her leg and I was afraid that somehow I'm I guess sick I just remember this lactating caribou that I had killed and I was thinking I never heard of people doing that but you know milking an animal after died until you just read that but walrus so you were worried you would have taken the milk but except for the fact that she had been infected she was the one that only had two good legs and her back leg going right up there towards her udder oh it was in terrible shape it was off it was full of possum damn I encountered that with an elk shot once he had been stabbed by another elk but in his in his one was back legs and it was just all filled with pus like when we were quartering him and taking it apart there was this one section that was just all pasty I've seen the same thing in a moose stabbed in the back like in the haunch there hmm yeah by one of the tines so when you boil the the wolf how are you eating that uh just plain just plain just chop you can fry it after you boil it give it a little extra flavor to do or if you yeah was that what you were doing or were you just eating it boiled both what is it like is there something you could taste a little wolfy whoopee wolf meat it's right it's a desperation food right you said how you would look at it if I didn't have something else Eddie wolf but yeah you know I got other things um there's all kinds of stuff you can do with food you can you know you can get primitive as you want yeah I can imagine but there's so much else going on like for me now if if you want to live that primitive lay off the land that's all you do it takes all your time mm-hmm if you want to share that life with other people like what I've been trying to do the last six years you can't just do that yeah because not that you don't really have the amount of time to hunt and gather like you would I wouldn't even have the ability to communicate right I want even be able to arrange to be on your show if I was out there living the way I was living No six seven eight years ago right [Applause]
