The Hunt Lift Eat Podcast

In this episode of the Hunt Lift Eat podcast, hosts Carter and Perry sit down with chef, hunter, and viral content creator Sean Johnson, known for his GetSaucedNJ brand. From his unexpected rise to social media fame after a deer butchering video went viral to his experience competing (and winning) on Food Network’s OutChef’d, Sean shares his journey with humor, humility, and raw honesty.

The conversation dives deep into imposter syndrome, the struggles and rewards of sharing your passion online, and the universal lessons learned in the woods and the kitchen. Sean also reflects on the importance of passing down hunting traditions, ethical harvesting, and how food can bridge cultural and personal divides.

This episode isn’t just about hunting or cooking—it’s about resilience, family, and betting on yourself. Tune in for an hour of laughs, insights, and heartfelt stories with one of the most relatable voices in the wild game community.

He has now hunted whitetail deer, mule deer, antelope, and elk in various states such as Georgia, Colorado, Virginia, Wyoming, & Montana. Being a young hunter, Cole has spent time learning new ways to introduce game meat into his life and share it with others. Cole also has a passion of educating people on hunting and conservationism overall. Cole is currently pursuing his master’s degree in international affairs and political science while working for a private defense contracting firm based out of the DC Metro area.
