I guess y'all don't eat mountain lion either. You poor people have no idea. You can keep your chicken beef and pork from HEB. I'll live my life eating mouth watering delicacies!

And yes, once you eat good mountain lion steaks you never can look at a house cat the same.

I am a hunter and sportsman to the core, but no matter how many times i tell myself that i would rather have venison than beef, or duck rather than chicken, my taste buds call BS! The only thing i think comes within a mile of a medium rare ribeye is grilled turkey breast! Now that right there is the "ribeye" of wild game!

But I do raise my own beef and pork and catch my own fish so chicken is the only thing i go to the HEB for.

I hate duck!!

Everytime I tell my duck hunting buddies that they look at me like I'm crazy and say "well you never had it cooked right"

After I tell them the exact way they want to cook it for me, cuz I've had it told to me a million times, they say "well whoever cooked it didn't know what they were doing"

Can't get the liver characteristics out of enough for me. I'll leave it the my friends in South LA

Well this thread didn't go where I was looking to go.. but at least I have the recipe forum.

To each their own. It just surprises me how many people don't eat what they kill. I grew up being told you eat what you kill otherwise its a waste of food. Many people are spoiled by being able to go to their local HEB now days to get "fresh" groceries... my family grows and kills our food. We don't have an outrageous grocery bill... and we never have to buy meat... It does bother me though if you shoot things other than predator hunting... and don't eat em. I see it a lot with dove hunting. People like to kill em.. but then don't want anything to do with them. That's not a good conservation practice...

Don't go pig hunting with me then. I don't follow the "leave no bacon behind" rules.

sorry man. those pics do look good, just from my experience they take a lot of doctoring up just to make edible. they are a blast to hunt, i just let who ever i hunt with have my share. im sure a chef could make them taste good. a chef can probably make anything taste good.

Wow, I was really hoping to see some new recipes in this thread but I guess everyone has to post their opinion even if it is not what the OP asked..
I'm with lowfence, when any kind of meat is out in the sun as long as some people keep it out, it's going to be nasty. Treat the meat good and it will taste good..

I'll go first:

Chicken Fried Duck:

Filet out breast thin, about three pieces per breast piece, soak in salt water over night to help draw out blood, change out the water and soak em again in fresh water for a few hours. Marinate in italian dressing over night. scramble up the eggs, and mix the flour with some Tony C seasoning. Dip the meat in the egg, then flour, egg again, then flour again to get a good thick batter. Then fry em up until your got a light golden brown. Doesn't take too long because the meat is pretty thin...

going to try it with the italian dressing..that sounds good

[ducks-and-bucks]

Maybe it is my cooking that blows everyone away. Haha jk.


SPUD:

If your over run with hogs.. by all means let's get a chopper and load up the ARs. Other than that a truck bed full of hogs can usually be given away to not waste em all. We have times we will kill 6-8 hogs. If there's a few people usually everyone takes se meat.. if its one or two of us I just cut out the straps and some good roast chunks and don't bother with any more of em. The left over make for good varmint bait out in our fields. Hogs breed like crazy... they are like growing squash.. you get a ton of em fast... on the other hand other game doesn't reproduce as fast so I do my part in using it to the fullest. With that being said a big boar hog.... I let em lay unless the meat is still very pink. If it is redish in color I let the whole thing lay. Many people have a misconception that a 150 lb boar is trash to eat... many times that's not the case.

Keatonskidmore: marinate chicken in Italian dressing for a day too and grill it. Its a great marinade for bird meat.

Anything cooked right can be good except buzzards.
