Let’s Get Together!

I am thrilled to work with companies I value and their associated brands to help meet marketing goals. When I’m passionate about something, I want to share it!

I am an experienced brand partner and recipe developer, and I have worked with a wide variety of companies including Outdoor Edge Knives, Savage Arms, CHARD Products, Visit Cheyenne, the North Dakota Department of Agriculture, the North Dakota Game & Fish Department, and more.

My recipes and food photography have been featured by lots of different media outlets seen here.

Please note, I am the only author of this website, and I am not accepting guest posts. I also am not looking to expand to new ad networks and do not participate in pay-by-click marketing campaigns. Thank you for your understanding.

Testimonials & Reviews

"I drew my once-in-a-lifetime North Dakota elk tag, and hired Jeff to photograph the hunt, cook all the meals, and process the animal afterwards. Jeff made great meals (especially the breakfast tacos) and was very helpful with anything I needed. I ended up harvesting a bull elk, and Jeff processed all the meat so I didn't have to worry about any of it. I had a great experience! I can't say enough about how professional he was and the quality of work he provided. I was also very pleased with the final photos from my hunt, and would highly recommend him to family, friends, and business associates."

"It was so special to have Jeff there as my photographer on my once-in-a-lifetime Bighorn Sheep hunt to capture some of the key moments of the hunt, including the shot itself. I will always cherish the photos he got so the memories can be preserved. It was also a real blessing to have Jeff there to help cape it out and cut up the meat afterwards since we were completely exhuasted!"

"Jeff has been my wild game butcher and processed all the meat for my Wyoming elk and a few Minnesota deer over the last few years. We keep coming back to him because he takes the time to age the meat, and our steaks are unbelievably tender! He is the absolute best!"

"Jeff Benda provided a fantastic seminar on ways to prepare fish including a live demonstration of three amazing recipes for FM Walleyes Unlimited’s club meeting. Jeff not only prepared the three dishes in front of the group, he thoroughly explained the nuances of how he was preparing the dishes and how we, as anglers, can utilize the techniques he was demonstrating in our cooking. Utilizing humor and explaining what he was doing in terms that we could all understand made this an enjoyable and informative session. I have put all three of Jeff’s selections on my “short list” as I hit the water this season for any fish I may bring home for the table. I would highly recommend Jeff for any group food seminars/demonstrations for groups large or small. And I fully endorse his recipes for group or individual meals! They are creative and delicious!"

"The North Dakota Wildlife Federation recently had the pleasure of hosting a wild game cooking demonstration with Jeff Benda. It was a delightful experience from start to finish. Hosted by a skilled wild game chef with a passion for showcasing the culinary potential of wild game, the event was both educational and delicious. First and foremost, Jeff’s expertise was immediately evident as they shared fascinating insights into the world of wild game cooking, breaking it down step-by-step making it easily accessible and transferable to at home cooking. His knowledge of various wild meats was truly impressive, and his enthusiasm for hunting public lands and conservation was inspiring. It was evident that they approached wild game with both respect for the animals and a deep appreciation for the different cuts and flavors they offer. What truly set this demonstration apart was the interactive nature of the experience. Jeff welcomed questions from the audience with warmth and enthusiasm, eagerly sharing tips, techniques, and personal anecdotes along the way. It felt less like a formal presentation and more like a conversation among friends in the kitchen, united by a shared love of wild game."
