If you’re overlanding across Australia, food can be expensive and hard to come by. Sophie Hollingsworth’s seafood-on-a-stick recipe is inspired by western Australian cuisine. She came across a fish too big for her cast iron pans, so she trussed the fish to a stick and cooked it over a fire.
Yeah, you’ve seen her on four seasons of Naked and Afraid. But Amber Hargrove is much more than that. This adventurous and highly active former U. S. Army Sergeant has tackled nearly everything “wild”. From catching fish with her bare hands to hunting small game with crossbows and shotguns and conducting camping and survival training. And she’s one classy gal to boot.
