Can you compare the flavour to anything? I would normally slow cook or curry it and bash it with flavours of some sort but after watch few folks on youtube thought I would give it the steak treatment. It was tender and juicy and did remind me of steak though I am no steak expert. Like they say if you overcook it then it would be terrible. Not sure if greylag is better than canada or theres not much difference will soon find out when i bag one soon. I did brine in salt water for 24 hours so maybe that took away a lot of gameness. Good vid here 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ive got two big Allotments, a small holding really, and grow a lot of veg, don't know about organic, but I don't use any chemicals, I make my own compost and use well rotted horse manure. Ive a few hens and ducks, more than enough to keep us in fresh eggs. They are not free range but have large pens and are fed on mixed corn and veg. Theres loads of wild plums, apples, berries round here, which I eat or use to make wine. I usually have a freezer full of game, and I get fresh trout, cod, mackerel, etc from my brother. I still have to get some things from the shops, but by and large, we eat fairly healthy. Cheers. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
