That cannibalism twist came RIGHT OUT OF NOWHERE !
Christopher O'Neil lmfao "and they ate him" didn't see that coming
Christopher O'Neil it was over a woman apparently
Women... always starting shit.
Christopher O'Neil had to listen that part twice to make sure I was hearing that right
just what I was thinking!
*Well, THAT ESCALATED QUICKLY*
Dude...caught me so off guard
Haha! My thoughts exactly!
at first i didn't realize he meant the guy, i thought he meant they ate the fish, but damn uright that escalated quickly lmao
This guy is so real
that story went from 0 to 60 REAL FUCKING QUICK
Sucker fish: Would you serve it in a restaurant? Steve weighs the options after bowfishing for sucker in Michigan's Muskegon Swamp in this video:
Great show on bow fishing. Even in the heat of summer there is always some you can chase with stick and string.
I love u Steve
Great content on your shows my man,watched your netflix series before i found this 👍
I don’t know about serving it in a restaurant. I live on the north end of Lake Huron. Often keep a couple for shore lunch. And salt chunks of them for ice fishing
The philosophy is why I keep coming back to the series, books, webisodes, etc. The hunting and fishing is amazing, but Steve's analytical mind and thoughtfulness is what sets him head and shoulders above the rest.
As an aside, I had half a pint of sucker for lunch today - sucker that I caught in a Michigan stream and canned myself last summer. It's a delightful fish that takes the place of canned tuna for me.
Get out there and experiment, beautiful people.
I wish I could work for you. Mad respect man. Thank you for all you share and show the world. As a first generation Hunter. Your knowledge will Grace me and my child for years to come.
I can't get enough! Longer video's please!
In the Ozarks we have buffalo fish or chubsucker and you gotta know how to cook it right, score it up and deal fry in a catfish cornmeal batter is amazing
almost seemed like he didn't swallow throughout that whole thing
....YOU SIR ARE A PRIMAL PHILOSOPHER.
I'VE BEEN A FAN OF RED HORSE SUCKER GASHED AND FRIED CRISP WITH HUSH PUPPIES AND SUCKER GRAVY SINCE AGE 3.
This is my favorite freshwater fish. I didn’t see this episode but my experience they are full of bones. We would gash them about 1/8 inch all the way down the fish. Then fry them whole. Bones were crispy and could be eaten.

Great video, and very insightful commentary as well!
always makes me hungry as heck!
Always has some kind of crazy story, good job !
I wonder if he genuinely liked it, he never said if he did or didn't, but by talking with his mouth full, I think he was proving some kinda point that he liked it, but I doubt it lol
Hey that Etienne guy you're talking about wasn't the first to see those places...
Wow...food for thought; no pun intended. Great perspective. Guess I'll have to try a sucker.
Steve always has some insightful shit to say..
Wow.. great video Steve
Why is his mouth full even when it’s empty?
I was catching a bunch of these things at flat rock during the walleye run, i had never seen them before (if they are the black striped fish that he's eating) and i was gonna throw them back but these arabic kids asked if they could have them so i did the work and they got three good sized ones out of it lol, looking it up later it turns out they are pretty good smoked, i may have to try that next time i catch them.
‘Zero to OH SHIT ‘ real quick
I did not see that coming...
Well said brother!
Kind of like how they changed the name of the Patagonian tooth fish to the Chilean sea bass. Just to make it sound more appealing.
Did u score the sucker's first cause we gig suckers and u gotta score em cause of the little bones
Every white man back then just assumed "The Indians ate that guy"
RIP brulee
I feel like he had this pretty crazy story that he had been saving for quite a while but just didn't know how to use it on the show... Then thought, fuck it...
This guys high
I didn’t see that turn.
I had to go back to make sure i heard him correctly lol
the only constant in life......is change....
some folk still look tasty but I have found myself in the deep sout of texas and a few people act like food snobs and have no taste buds for anything that is foreign to them
Well 🤷♂️
I haven't killed an animal to eat in 23 years but Steve's makin me want to again
while having his food.. his subject of story is cannibalism! sometimes people watch food videos to induce appetite.. on your next food video try to talk about toilets habit.
I wish you were my Professor.
"We change and maybe its not always for the better." Not a great way to end a story about how people used to be cannibals.
So creme brule is an indian dish?
They didn't have a choice back then imagine being happy to eat sucker. We'd eat em now if we were hungry enough but we have better options easily available.
Rinella will eat you in circumstances
I had to watch that part like 10 times to make sure I understood it...Perfectly great story, very interesting, orphan finds a home...gets eaten
Touche'
I'm now going to use this same logic to justify waaaaay too many things
*soothing guitar* .... So anyways they ate him!
Maybe not always for the better. But at least our people roasts are now only for comedy lol
Yeah but you never really said what it tastes like
Well at least sucker fish ain't people, that's what they should write on the menu
See this is how we all need to eat too properly digest our food. He just keeps shoving it in his mouth...he just chews and chews and only swallows after chewing it for like 45 seconds..
Dude why would you tell that story
dudes they were about surviving they didn't have all the options and opportunities for the cooking techniques and shit you do, to say we've changed our tastes because we don't eat humans anymore is pretty stupid
Bet Steve tries human once before he dies
Wtf
I think you'd be hard pressed to find examples of human populations that practiced cannibalism for purely dietary reasons like we eat beef or poultry. There is always ritualistic and religious significance to that practice. In other words, cannibalism isn't about liking the taste of human flesh, and abandoning it wasn't simply a matter of a changing appetite.
Well ok the Natives that he was betraying them and then they ate him.
I mean a bit of an overreaction for betrayal but a little context helps...
He's ate people before. For sure hes eaten a females beaver.
The first person to see Lake Huron hahaha so the natives aren’t people huh. I love nature and these shows but God I hate the blatant disrespect of the people’s who ran these lands before a white man or Spaniard stepped foot here. Pay homage
Guy was spewing bullshit lol
What?! 😂 was he craving some orphan sucker dish or just wondering what ppl taste like?
that story about the orphan... gor real, real fast.
Took a hard left turn out of no where haha I wasn't expecting that at all
We changed...we used to eat each other :)
What
Bet I taste like vodka.
Said every divorced lesbian couple ever.
@@mance985 bahahaha
My favorite example of this phenomenon is lobster. Back in the day lobster was so reviled it was considered to be cruel to even feed it to prisoners.
Truth.
During the Civil war, lobster was a popular canned food, at least for the Union. If you read accounts of when the Confederates raided Manassas junction, one of the food items in the trains was canned lobster, and apparently there was a lot of it. The Confederates ate good for a few days.
yeah but something to note is that all crustaceans, including lobster, have a chemical reaction that happens to them when they die, that decomposes them very quickly. this causes the meat to go bad and turn disgusting in a matter of hours. the lobster being served to prisoners likely had been killed days beforehand and not boiled in the prisons with melted butter. honestly it was probably worse than the prison food given to prisoners today
tepteky thats a really good point. if you dont eat lobsters extremely fresh they cant even make you super sick. i never thought of that when thinking about this topic. the most wanted food back then would probably be whatever spoils the slowest that way it was still decent by the time it got to you. thats really interesting to think about.
There's credibility to it. The same was for tuna since tuna flesh rots very quickly after being harvested but now with refrigeration technology it's highly sought after.
Was expecting a different line than "then they ate him"
all of this guy's videos have the LOWEST dislikes, because he is a great conversationalist and tells the TRUTH with common SENSE......................wait the Indians ATE him????,
32 cannibals disliked this video
nothing wrong with sucker over an open fire. its the mcdonalds people that are the problem thinking every thing has to have a wrapper and an exp date on it that bug me.
"And then... They ate him!"
What?
"We changed" Speak for yourself. I still eat human flesh.
that was a pretty bad analogy.
No it isn't. It was an example of how something so recent used to be relished or enjoyed in the same land we live in..in the very recent past in human history. Also hell it's still going on daily in the world ..but it's so assbackward for us, we wouldn't consider it an ok/good food option
Bruce Banner It had nothing to do with tastes. That's a cultural change. It relates to sucker fish in no way.
Matt Britzius I don't think the video is really about sucker fish, it may be labeled as such, but it's about change whether it be cultural or culinary.
You're a bad analogy
I'm sure yours is better keyboard warrior
It makes me think about when back in the day people didn’t like lobster and now it’s a delicacy
idk everytime i hear this guys stories im really interested at first. then when he keeps talking and talking im just like what the fuck is this dude talking about now?
... and then, THEY ATE HIM!
That's got to be one of the most nonchalant deliveries of a can I also story ever! And talk about wanting to know more! Brilliant story! Well done Steven!
in a nutshell, eating sucker fish is tolerable such as eating orphans.
Join us this week on MeatEater as Rinella waxes poetic about the noble savage.
This dude never disappoints me.
It's kind of a stupid enalogy, Brule was killed by the Huron. Brule was killed because he betrayed the Huron to there enemy the Seneca. Both the huron and the Seneca were Iroquois peoples. The Iroquois didn't eat people for food. The Iroquois practiced ritual canabalism. strangthening rituals,purification rituals and ritual humiliation of there enamys It was actually taboo in Iroquois culture to eat people for food. He makes it sound like they just got hungry one day and decided to eat the white guy. The truth is more likely that he was never eaten or if his flesh was consumed it was his heart and only the worriors who killed him consumed some of his body
Of coarse we change, we as a society have turned into a bunch of spoiled, over weight, soft, slobs. Most people don’t even work hard everyday, and I’m talking about actually gets your hands dirty. We have it easy. Even poor people have a smartphone.
*Steve Rinellas Brain* yknow this sucker isnt great... but its not people meat!
Looking for a catch clean cook orphan video in near future 😆
Sucker is kinda bony but I like it fried trick is to gash the fish with a razor blade so the bones fry up
like you score it deeply? and deep fry or pan fry?
Smoke it in dry spruce it’s delicious
lol I think when we decided eating people wasn't to our taste it was for the better.
Man... shit was deep.
I'd rather eat a sucker out of pristine water rather than eating a walleye out of shit water
I'd rather eat sucker out of shit water than walleye out of the best water something about it I am not a fan of cold water fish and the sucker run if my favorite time of year
Bagelstorm steelhead trout from some crisp cold mountain stream
What portable grill were you using in the 2016 Antelope episode in the back of your Tacoma?
kwarnisplayer it doesn't matter just get a Weber go anywhere grill
"and then the Native Americans ate a kid ... see our tastes changed.... maybe we've all changed... and not for the better..." Steve Rinella
This video now reminds me of Andrew Schultz's "Eating Ass" bit lol
What a cruel practice involving the orphans
Irony is that i am watching this video sitting in Georgian Bay. Didn't know this place was dark lol
When I saw Steve at Hamilton bridge, we did indeed catch a 20 incher. Brought it home and fried it up. Panko, shredded Parm, and some Pete's... 🔥
So that's where Crème Brûlée comes from...lol
I bet them Indians was telling s story just Steve was while eating that delicious grilled human meat
wow sucker to people and not even a pause
Fish is basically a vegetable.
thanks for that! That was awesome!
I would rather eat a sucker than a human.
I don't know, if you like pork, you'll love folks....apparently.
First guy to see the great lakes......... got eaten by the natives.
Had sucker before....now let’s try that hoomen.
they didnt eat him because they found him tasty.....it wasnt their tastes.
