- Steven Rinella and his friend Ronny Boehme drive into the mountains of southwest Montana to hunt the high ridge tops for dusky grouse. Ronny’s Bracco Italiano hunting dogs have been bred and trained for this work, but can Ronny handle the altitude? The duo prepares dusky grouse jalapeño poppers and grouse fettuccine with a white wine and cream sauce.

"I'm so excited, I shit myself." -How I feel every time a new episode is posted.
Haha me too
Ronnie is like an old friend I’ve never met. Very cool guy and relatable in many ways.
was just about to write a comment like this and yours was the first i laid eyes on. thanks for takin care of it for me
👍🏼💯
Does he look like Joe rogan with hair to you??
@@Adamleighjones for sure bro your eyes are still working bucko 👌🏽😂👍🏽
Those heavy farts tho...
On this episode: Steve tries to kill a flatlander
DesertDwellers essentially...yes
LOL, well played.
Is this what the mountain dwellers call us? 😂
@@adrianvelez4147 Yes. Other synonyms include: little-lungers, jelly-leggers, & achy-anklers.
I use to get called that when I moved to Montana, funny thing is, it really wasn't any diffrent from hiking in the blueridge to me, just rockier and higher altitude, at times. But ironically I met alot of montanaens that couldn't keep up with me.
"Cleans up nice!" A true dog person.
He hosts "The Hunting Dog" podcast, if you're into podcasts
@@muddywaterfishing yo thanks so much 🙏🙏
I love the fact that he goes hunting with the guy that gave him a job through college in construction. You got a love the relationship between those two guys. Being a guy in construction I can relate to all of this.
Being a guy who went to college, earned his way through by working and scholarship, currently in construction hiring college kids myself ... I can relate to it as well : )
It's a good thing this came out today and not tomorrow. I'm getting hitched and me taking 20 minutes out of the honeymoon to watch this wouldn't play well.
Dude, you ought to be able to squeeze 20 minutes of time to yourself even on a honeymoon. If you can’t get 20 minutes to yourself, how will you ever get to hunt? Set the standard early that you need time to yourself.
@@arthritisankle I was making a little joke. I found one who likes to keep a full freezer and enjoys back packing more than I do 😉
@@nickm8940 lol
@@nickm8940 you. . .dang you're lucky
@@nickm8940 Wow, hang on to her she's a keeper. Side Note - Marriage can be difficult at times, good luck.
9:53 “I’m so excited I shat myself” I am DYING from laughter.
11:27 Hahaha
“Let’s go get a beer” seems well deserved.
As an avid upland and dog guy, this was without a doubt my most favorite episode you have ever put out. I'd give a weeks pay to hunt with Ronnie. I am putting this on my bucket list of bird hunts.
Agreed. As a Minnesotan roughed grouse hunter, blue grouse out west is on the bucket list!
If you want a location in Colorado to get on them, let me know. We took several with bow and arrow while on a September elk hunt. Great eating bird, not difficult to take.
Do you have a gps dog collar? I'm looking for some recommendations!
My daughter's love the Virginia dove episode with Ronnie. Taking them dove hunting this weekend
Typical flatlander: whoof that was a long walk. Let's get a beer. I'm from WI, that would have been my reaction too, Ronny.
Also, Ron with an old 7.3 makes me feel better about owning one. They have a soft spot in my heart, and him having one makes it a little cooler. Lol
Yessir. I’ve got a 97 that I’ll never part with. Good ol horse.
Ronnie, neat double with a fine looking SxS. Love the truck also.
I want an episode on ronnie's sxs lol
Hell yeah, I want a 16 gauge side by side still. Been on the look out for something for years.
grouse hunt is by far my favorite hunt mainly because of my dad that bring me with him since im 5 years old .. im 33 and he just got 70 now and we still go together each season
This guy looks like Joe Rogans dad
I was thinking he looked like Joe rogan aswell lol
Was thinking the same thing the whole ep
You beat me to it
First thing I thought first comment I read
thinking same thing
Ronnie is awesome. This is one of my all time favorite episodes thru the whole series.
Ronnie needs to be on every episode! He's a character lol love his style and attitude.
Get the man some trekking poles!
You can't on a grouse hunt.
Those Bracco Italiano dogs are gorgeous.
You can tell they’re good friends. You don’t just take anyone on a random harebrained hunt.
Nothing like a couple days in the woods with a good friend
That double was seriously impressive. Also. Ron earned those. Lol
When the two grouse flew into each other and then bounced off and flew in two separate directions. Heck of a shot for sure.
I loved this episode. It reminds me of my first pheasant hunt with my dad in SW Kansas. What a big deal it was to finally get to go with Dad. Some of the best memories of my life.
Awesome! One of my favorite birds to hunt, and thankfully hugely underrepresented in the hunting media. Not many folks are willing to put in the work it sometimes takes to get into them.
Dude omfg I love that Steve is always making Ron walk and hike more than he wants to.
The fellowship, memories and good times hunting brings to us hunters. In a time like today I wish everyone could get a taste of it. Might just change the world
More hunters should have this attitude, look to include not exclude and maybe the world would understand why hunters hunt for their food. God bless brother.
I will bring the ring to Mordor!
Oh sorry, wrong fellowship.
@Matias D.C Awe, looks like someone is a Vegan lol.
@@rhelferstay impossible food running through those veins
Ronnie eating in his dog plate is a bad ass move man 😂best....hardcore hunters ... Can adopt to any situation... Cool 👍
The farting! 😂 If you can’t let er rip in the woods and laugh about it, are you even a hunter? Love this show!
Steve makes me want to hunt again.. Its been a few years.
This guy's content is so good, he could make a hunting show, have an episode about hunting grouse, and I would watch it!
His ability to narrate his own material is simply amazing while staying true to its content and keeping his viewers glued 👍🏽
@@chocolingo7423 you do know
Never mind
He has a show called meat eater. It’s a great show. I love it. You should look it up. He has his show on this TH-cam channel. Look through his videos and watch them all. He’s added fishing series’ called “das boat” and “fur hat ice tour.” Also check out his “Back 40” series. They are all great. His narrating is definitely awesome and I love his perspective on hunting because it gave me a tangible explanation for how I feel about hunting. He was able to get me to explain and understand how I felt about hunting and feeding ones body and soul.
they need more grouse/pheasant episodes in my opinion. but thats just cuz i just got into hunting and thats what im going for atm lol.
Ill have you know....... So would I!
Omg i can't believe an Italian braco love it . I'm 52 and I grew up hunting with my dad who had a braco before I was even born . She was the best bird hunting dog that existed in Chile in the early 70s . My dad later got a Brittany spaniel here in the US. Well, let's just say not even close she even retrieved ducks !
Just started harvesting grouse during my hunts this year. Can't believe I've been missing out all these years. They are delicious.
Can't imagine a better way to spend a day...beautiful scenery, good friend, dogs and birds!
A morning cigar with his coffee… a man of culture.
Love to see the bracco getting some attention. Awesome dogs wouldnt trade mine for all the money in the world
Hears fart...thinks it was just them walking then Ronnie said I’m so excited I shit myself 😂 I feel him on that
This was a good one, Ronnie is a keeper.
watching Meat Eater makes my soul happy
Im just happy those puppers are happy.
Duskeys like an escape route. They are very often on the edge of a hill side or cliff they can use to elude predators. You'll also find them near water sources.
I love hunting dusky grouse with my German shorthairs here in Wyoming. I look for young forest and lots of open edges. Better in Sept. They start moving up into high mature forest later in October. I put bells on my dogs because bears in good bird habitat. Nice looking Braccos
Good to see Ron's a travelling man. You keep good company Steve. Love the show.
_“Who’s a good booyyy?!”_
I could watch Steve hunt every day for the rest of my life
WOW, how much fun was that, awesome country, great friends, dogs, double barrels, birds and food and drinks.
Twenty one point two zero minutes of enjoyment. Thanks for taking me along and letting me enjoy a meal as well. Thanks to Ron and your team for producing these videos. Gregg from Graham, TX.
Being from MN I completely understand how Ronny feels. We go elk hunting in CO every year and the elevation is an absolute killer.
Kudos to the friend. It looks like his hip and knee are toast, but he powers through. Too bad the young guy won't appreciate this until he's in the same boat one day -- the circle of life
Thanks to Steve I went on my first scouting trip on VA National forest land 3 days ago and I'm going back for a 3 day archery whitetail hunt and taking my .22 roger for small game after christmas. It's awesome being up in the mountains of N.America
Little tip.....use sub sonic rounds in your .22lr so you don't blow out the whitetail. Good luck!!
Awesome video !! Cant believe he got that double. Hell of a shot.
My wife and I love your show. I would never watch anybody else upland bird hunt but your commentary and the way you dive into every hunt like it might be your last no matter what the game is just awesome. Love it man have watched every episode of last 2 seasons very excited to see season 3!!!!!
i love Ronny`s attitude at the end of first trip out.
"well if you look at it this way" and smiles and shit.
Watching your videos makes me wanna start hiking again, not as pro with a rifle or bow but Nature is a wonderful thing.
Ain't nothing like a good dog.
Goes hunting with Steve, has to eat out of a dog bowl... Good Times!!
With buddies like that,who needs family.🤗🤗🤗🤗
Ronny is my favourite guest syeve has had and hes a true dog owner how do i know when you need a bowl grab a hand full of weeds and whipe out your dohs water bowl and use it tjats a true dog owner love this guy
I love how Steve always cooks the wild game at the end of the video. This guy can really cook! I killed a rough grouse one time and pan fried it, it was the toughest thing I've ever tried to eat and I've never had the desire to kill another one. LOL
More Ronny, he is hilarious.
Seen 2 grouse in the last 20 min. I love living in British Columbia.
I want to see the Himalayan Snow Cock hunt now. One of the most masochistic hunts I have ever done. Only a couple mountain ranges in Nevada where they exist in North America as far as I know.
MeatEater needs to team up with Gordon Ramsay for a backcountry gourmet wildgame meal
That's actually an amazing idea
This comment is underrated af
He's got some episodes not sure what show but it's on TH-cam where he kills and Cooks
The vegans love Steven Rinella 😂
Ramsay is too stuck up for this.
Montana Mountain grouse, Ruffed grouse, Dusky grouse, Blue grouse, and Suddy grouse? I just call them yummy.
Ronny seems like a really fun guy. Plus I love the old school green Gatorade bottle he's got, reminds me of playing HS Football.
“Some animals guts smell worst than others” 11:32 “what you think of that?”
LMAO
Great Pups
What a dream. I would love to have an adventure like that. Thanks for sharing.
Ronnie is my favorite guy that hunts with Steve and that's saying alot because I'm a huge Joe Rogan fan
No way! I thought you guys were done after season 2! Thanks so much for the great content!
have you watched the seasons on netflix? they have 5-9 on there i believe
@@anthonydavid8824 I have, which is why I'm so excited for season 1-3 content because it isn't there.
@@anthonydavid8824 it’s only 7-9, I believe.
@@arthritisankle really? I might have been confusing this show with another lol.
@@anthonydavid8824 no you’re right it was 5-9 but they removed 5 & 6 recently
Absolutely love this show. I am a Yooper and hunting grouse over my black lab and silver Weimaraner is my #1 favorite thing to do.
You get to experience some of the most beautiful places my hats off to you sir
Ronnie does seem like a good dude, you keep those ppl close.
Loved it...glad it tasted 180° from the entrails' smell. Thanks to the crew.
Eating Grouse Fettuccine out of a Dog Bowl. Added to my Bucket List.
That's a buddy and long time friend right there . Appreciate y'all for sharing
Easily one of my favorite episodes!
Couldn't be a greater story appreciate y'all
We need more of Ronnie, what a legend 👏
Ronnie’s brave to let one fly out in the bush.😂
Great episode, awesome seeing steve and ronnies lifelong bond here.
For some reason my favorite part is, “and the grouse is the right texture for it… there’s a cow moose standin there!”
"I'm so excited I shit myself" - Ronny Bracco after rippin a good one
that is the best thumbnail I have ever seen. that dog has the best face ever lol.
I love Ronnie man is a treasure
11:30😂
"What do you think of that?"
So crazy to think we have blue grouse all over utah especially up in strawberry
I am the same way when it come to hunting. It’s all about being outside in a place you enjoy and harvesting something is always a bonus and when I have dogs that’s the one thing I will want to push more to harvest
That is such a perfect episode! Thank you!
Full episodes of meateater on youtube is the only thing keeping 2020 bearable. Thanks guys!
Steve you are an awesome individual. I plan on going after my first white tail ever this coming season because of your inspiration. Keep it up!
Dusky grouse.....the archery elk hunters consolation prize! I believe took 7 this past year with my bow.
It is great you can share this adventure with someone who has meaning in your past.
This is QUALITY content. So well produced and a great watch.
Love it. Every episode is something different.
Right on. Grouse on purpose is not for the faint of heart.
Ronnie got them old man farts lol 😂 the old man I use to work with was like that lol
Best response to an unexpected fart: 9:50
EVER.
Good lookin dogs
What an exciting hunt 👏!!!
Love it !!! Congratulations to all of you including the behind the scenes people for this excellent episode!!!
Keep up the good job!!
That a hunt you both will remember!!! Nothing like it
KEEM EM COMIN!!
Love these older seasons
Finally! Can't wait for more episodes
