prontopestcontrol 0 Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 Hi just got back from one of my permissions after making a start on thier rabbit problem during which time i bagged a pheasant. My question is how do you prepair them, do you still have to hang them or can you just pluck, gut and freeze them .. any advice would be much appreciated... Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wanna be farmer 0 Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 I don't hang them personally. I just cut the breasts of them and throw the rest away. As most of the meat is on the breast i just cut them off. I like pheasant fajitas. I don't like plucking them as it takes ages and the skin rips a fair bit, I have met a bloke who can pluck pheasants very fast and make no rips or minute rips but it would take alot of practice to be that good.

oakey 57 Posted November 1, 2009 Report Share Posted November 1, 2009 I do quite a lot of game. I dont bother with plucking or messing rip off the wings and head then insert your thumbs into the hole in the neck then turn inside out .You should be left with breast meat on the bone just right for cooking the rest is ferret food. if that is too messy trim breast meat off with a sharp knife.As for hanging that is trial and error untill you get the taste you want. I dont hang mine but i dont want pheasant hanging round my house if know what i mean? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
