What's your go-to pheasant recipe?

Just went to a game preserve yesterday and brought home some quail, chukar, and pheasant. In the past I've always did shake n bake with the smaller birds and cooked the pheasant in the crock pot with rosemary, thyme, and a few other fragrant herbs. I normally cook dressing and mashed potatoes with these birds.

I have the oven, smoker, instant pot, crock pot, sous vide for cooking methods. Hit me with your favorite recipes. Also, if you have any favorite side dishes to go with please let me know.

Thank you!

The last time I saw a pheasant it was walking beside Sunrise Hwy. on Long Island in 1968. I assume it tastes like chicken so fry that baby up.

Brown them in a pan with butter, salt pepper and flour, then into the crock pot with cream of mushroom soup.

Patted with butter and slow cooked on grill or oven.

Or, you could just drop them by the house Chas and I'll take care of them myself. 😉

Cubed up, and cooked in a scrambled egg dish.

It's not to be confused with quiche...

Check you tube for coq-au-vin. It's not as French or complicated as it sounds. And the one I saw used bacon.

No matter how you cook it, serve it under glass and be sure to extend your pinky finger high in the air as you dine! 😁

Thanks for all the recipes. We have 4 pheasants to cook so we will mix them up. All ready cooked some of the smaller birds. I need to do a better job cleaning them. Found 5 pieces of shot in one plate.
