    I like to do jerky on both when the meat is getting older and we need to use it up. Do fajitas a lot too. Slice into strips and fry up with onion and peppers. I prefer duck with the skin off as well, makes it less greasy.

    I never cared for eating wild birds of any kind, but I have to think it was because they weren't prepared right. Usually overcooked I think, certainly uninspired cooking, but it's been 45 years ago at least.

    If you ever get a chance to shoot and eat quail, you will change your mind about wild birds. I like pheasant ok, but the little quail breast nuggets are superior to chicken in every way.

    Shot lots and lots of quail as a yoot, that's mainly what we hunted. Had relatives with farm & ranch land in western OK, loaded with quail. Not bad, quail and doves were pretty good. But again, I don't think they were cooked right, too overcooked. Usually fried hot and fast, I think I could do better. Sure lots of fun to shoot though!

    Quail is the best. Chukar is pretty good too.

    Improperly cooked, and not taken care of in the field are usually why wild game of any kind tastes bad...except Snow Goose...they never taste good.
    Good Shooting, MarkCO

    I have made cream of pheasant soup with wild rice. Just looked up cream of chicken and substituted. I will soak the pheasant breasts in buttermilk overnight then cook as directions state. I also have taken said soaked pheasant breasts and smeared cream cheese inside of breast. You can add any spices or slices of hot peppers of choice. Roll up, wrap in bacon and grill. When bacon done the pheasant is done.
