Killin’ It in the Kitchen

Wes believes that getting familiar with the food you’re putting in your body, instead of warming leftovers, is the best way to enjoy food. Making his home in North Carolina for the past 27 years, Wes created a name for himself as a contestant on “Naked and Afraid,” earning the nickname “The Assassin” (see Carolina People). Recipes, woven with personal photos and stories, include Venison Vegetable Stew and Pork Ribs. If you’re ready for a culinary adventure, Wes’ cookbook is the perfect pick. Paperback, 38 pages, $19.79.
