When a co-worker plopped a cooler full of Pheasant & Quail in my lap I was at a loss as to how to prepare them. He said to just fry them up! I searched here for a fried pheasant recipe but came up empty...
I made this one up, and my husband says, "You need to put this one in your online recipe stuff". Well, that's a very nice compliment from him, so here it goes! It can be modified with your favorite marinade,...
This has always been our recipe of choice when it's time to Pheasant hunt. Now with Zaar! there are lots for us to choose from. Thought I would pass on another recipe. Please try it! I think you'll also...
Posted in response to a request. This was my grandmother's recipe for pheasant. We had/have a lot of hunters in the family and this was the best recipe for pheasant. I'm guessing on the serving size for...
This is from a cool cookbook called "The Washington Cookbook" which features recipes collected from Washington state and published in 1982. From the wild game chapter, this is posted in response to a request....
The original of this is in The Encyclopedia of Creative Cooking edited Charlotte Turgeon. I only had one chance to try cooking pheasant, and this is the recipe I used. While the original recipe calls for...
I this at a friends house and it was great. She gave me a list of ingredients and this is what I came up with. It is great as pheasant works well with dove breasts and chicken breast with or without skin....
This recipe uses wild pheasant. It came from my grandmother to my mother to me. We traditionally served this recipe at Thanksgiving (during pheasant season). During cooking, it forms a sauce or gravy that...
A heartwarming main dish from the heartland. From the Mississippi Valley chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.
This recipe calls for Beau Monde seasoning. Beau Monde is a mellow beefy flavor with broad tones of celery, onion and garlic. Widely sought for use in party dips and Bloody Marys. Marvelous on salads,...
I've used this recipe many times and have no complaints so far from any of my friends. I can't remember where I got it but I can say it's been well used. Note: Young birds are the best for roasting. You...
Wild pheasants are usually smaller birds, thus will cook in less time. If you are using a wild pheasant, please adjust the cooking time accordingly. ALSO, you can substitute chicken for pheasant.
I used to own a poultry and game shop many years ago. This recipe (from The Poultry and Game Cookbook) was one of my favourite ways to cook pheasant. I think the modern trend is to eat game cooked rare,...
My grandfather was a dentist. He traveled up the Missouri River by keel boat to Fort Benton, bringing the first tooth xray to Montana before Montana became a state. I never knew him,but cousins have discovered...
It's for pheasant under chicken skin! Don't laugh. It's true! I use the skins from chicken leg quarters to protect the delicate wild pheasant breasts from the drying effect of the smoker. The fatty chicken...
Brining really is the way to go with pheasant, to keep it moist and also to "cut" some of that rich gaminess. This brine recipe is from the television show "Outdoor Wisconsin"; I like to keep the bird...
This came from the back of a package of pheasant breasts. Try using marmalade or orange juice in place of the lemon juice for an easy change. I've also substituted different vegetables, snow peas or even...
I got this recipe from "who knows where" I can't remember, but have had it on an index card forever. I still haven't made it, but DH is going to be pheasant hunting again so I dug it out and plan to prepare...
Adapted from A Feast of Scotland. Posted for ZWT6. Cox's Orange Pippin apples are crisp and sweet, with a complex flavor. If you can't find them, any crisp, sweet apple will do.
A savory stew for you hunters. From the Mississippi Valley chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947. Cooking time approximate.
Prairie chicken, sage hens, young pheasants or even frying chickens can all be cooked this way. From the Mississippi Valley chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago,...
Because older birds are not tender enough to be roasted, they are excellent slowly braised and tenderised in a beautiful sauce. The advantage of a little age is, of course, a lot more flavour, so this...
This recipe would also work very well for young pheasants. From the Michigan Dutch chapter of the United States Regional Cookbook, Culinary Arts Institute of Chicago, 1947.
Taken from a book called "Celtic Folklore Cooking". I have yet to try this, as I'm still waiting for one of our hunter-type friends to supply me with a brace of pheasants. Crispy roasted potatoes are the...
Thought this sounded interesting. This recipe uses an electric smoker but think it can very easily be adapted to a manual or other smoker, allowing for extra smoking time.
I don't know how or where my boyfriend got this recipe, but ever since he made it for me I begin to crave it around Pheasant season. It is so flavorful and juicy. Great for a cold night.
