The recipes were the reasons people watched the show. Having them listed showcased the odd, game-focused diversity the show was known for. This diversity was the reason the show was launched, and what Speer lent to it.
The episode list information source had been cited at the beginning of the list--unfortunately, Arkansas PBS website removed that information from their website. Removing the show list removes information from the public.
Other series list episode information, as well; it is not uncommon.
Cooking on the Wild Side is technically a close spinoff from Arkansas Outdoors (due to interest in the cooking part of the series, see references), but Cooking on the Wild Side is more well-known than its predecessor.
I wouldn't mind writing this from the perspective of AO, but I can't find as much on its content to make it stand out, or series summaries, and so on.
The two hosts are apparently something of state celebrities, both known for their work in taking agricultural and outdoors education to the media available at the time (radio and television). They each have positions in a "Hall of Fame" due to their educational work (Speer's is from the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission, and Philpot's is from Arkansas Agriculture).
It's possible they might earn their own pages if enough information can be found. Right now, I've put in a bare descriptor of each host, to briefly hilight their background education and work relative to what was an educational series. I'm unsure whether John's education (undergrad in agriculture, master's in media education) would be relevant, though it may be.
