In this mouthwatering episode of Wild Life Outdoors, Russell and Jose sit down with Jesse Griffiths, award-winning chef, conservation advocate, and author of The Turkey Book. Jesse shares behind-the-scenes stories from his coast-to-coast turkey hunts across Texas, Georgia, Oregon, and Connecticut—recalling the hardships and triumphs that shaped his latest work.
