Re: Pheasant Hunting-1st Time Luck
I really like pheasant, and recommend trying it by itself first. You just have to be careful to not overcook it. Brining is good. You should cook the breast to a little over 160°.
I haven't gotten one since I got a sous vide, which would probably be perfect, with a quick pan sear afterwards.
Ms Grip likes it best baked with an apple cream sauce.Boy, I say boy, you're reaching the limits of my medication!

Re: Pheasant Hunting-1st Time Luck
So is it gamey or and bad taste? Never had it but looking forward to cooking some up.

Re: Pheasant Hunting-1st Time Luck
I filed dressed and removed the breast and thighs and ran under water to clean them and froze, I hope that was appropriate? There seems to be a membrane over the breast, do I remove it or is it part of it? I may be overthinking here as I have a tendency to do. My buddy helped be breast it out so I am sure there is nothing there that is inedible except the bones.

Re: Pheasant Hunting-1st Time Luck
Congrats! Plenty of recipes on the web for pheasant you should scope out and pick. Haven’t hunted them for years but we used to slow cooker them with a sauce to keep them moist. They can dry out if not careful.
