Comments: From time to time and occasionally on a commission basis, I create special recipes for special companies and extraordinary people. Elizabeth "Libbie" McLain is one of those special people. She was instrumental in the production and design of the first The Sporting Chef website. Libbie is an extremely creative and entertaining friend, but I think shed rather eat a cheeseburger than Venison Elizabeth. Shes not too adventurous when it comes to food.
