So like a dog hunted down these birds? And what effect does that have on the dish?
The right bird looks a bit chewed up and the middle one is missing its legs. I am guessing the dog did this.
Some of the legs were either a bit small to keep, or may have been peppered by the shot so we didn’t keep them all. I won’t deny that one of the chewy dogs may have had their chance with one of them when retrieving, though I can’t say that was for sure the case here.
That they might be a bit more tender depending on which dog caught (and handled) the bird after the flush and shoot 😅 We took our dog hunting over the weekend with some family and this was the result after a little bit of prep and brining.
Okay thanks for answering was just curious. Do you normally hunt your dinner?
Normally (as in on a day-by-day basis), no. However, we do hunt and fish a few times a year in spurts depending on the season and if we participate in it we make use of the catch so it’s never wasted.
That’s good I cringe at people who hunt for sport but never eat what they kill.
It infuriates me to find a whole dead deer with only the antlers removed.
Mphmhmm! Excitedly gestures to plate You can really taste the dog drool!
Why specify that it was dog hunted? Only time I’ve been in a large enough group of hunters to actually cover the field without dogs I almost got friendly fired because that was too fuckin many people.
That looks good!
I caught a quail. Quite tasty although a bit small. They aren’t very smart
Never ate quail, let alone a hunted one. How does it compare to chicken and turkey and does the game version have a gamier taste too?
I haven’t had wild turkey in a long time so I can’t compare, but, IMO, it has a very slight game flavor but not in a bad way. Enough to give it a unique flavor profile of its own apart from chicken without overdoing it.

God I hate the upper class.
Hunting for food is definitely not an upper class thing.
A tasty plate of cruelty.
