    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    You lucky lucky barstard!

    We used to pick bags and bags of them on the wee farm I grew up on, used to get the occasional soccer ball sized puff ball too.
    Apparently you can eat the puffballs? I only ever gave them my best match winning penaly kick impersonation.

    Is there somewhere reliable that can tell me what mushrooms are safe to eat? I have been told even though they may look like button ones doesn’t mean they are ok to eat. We have quiet a few starting to pop up around the farm.

    In typical 'go hard or go home' fashion I said "yea, I'll make some Boerewors", having never seen a sausage made let alone had a go myself.

    Anyway, I introduce to you, 5kg of Venison and Mead Boerewors !! (apparently Boerewors has brandy in it but I didn't have any, so home brew mead it was).

    Seemed to pass muster ......
    Unfortunately it was raining so they had to be cooked on the hotplate rather than the wood Braai

    I was told as a kid that if you can peel it, you can eat it....... Apparently you cannot peel a toadstool???
    Personally, I don't eat fungi so have never put it to the test, nor can I verify the validity of the advice given.

    If you find a good source I want to know too. Mushrooms can be notoriously difficult to identify, and safe species can look identical to toxic species. I did a bit of mushroom collecting of the magic variety and one of the ways to identify them is to take a spore print to see the color of the spores. You might need to go through some annoying binomial keys to get a good grasp on the features to look for. Boletes are probably your best bet at ensuring you dont pick up something toxic. Go for birch bolete! https://fungalguide.landcareresearch...x?Group=Bolete

    Ive eaten the bright red fly agaric before. Need to boil them to get toxins out before frying. Tastes pretty good. However, like the name suggests, the fungi attracts a lot of flies. There are almost always maggots everywhere in them.

    Field mushrooms are pretty safe. The only poisenous one that looks the same and grows in similar places have pure white gills. So as long as you avoid those you are all good.

    I made up a chilli con carne a wee while back.
    I have to make a PG version for the wife and daughter then a XXX version for me and the Son.
    I have never actually cooked any of his recipe's but I like this guy, our cooking styles are remarkably similar but he swears less.
