Blunderbuss Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Just wondering other peoples take on this. When crowning or breasting a load of pigeons to cook fresh or to freeze, how selective are you? Do you reject any that aren't perfect? Or do you just trim bruised meat or shot damage? Or do you just wop it in the frying pan and scoff it whatever it looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapp Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 Or do you just wop it in the frying pan and scoff it whatever it looks like? the only exception being if I have shotgunned a rabbit and the gut has burst, in which case I discard.

mosa Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I'm not that fussy the lot goes in (just had a curry 10 mins ago) Even the odd lead shot doesnt put me off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John_R Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I eat the lot, but will sort out the best ones for dishes that deserve better presentation, or when serving folk that might be a little nervous about eating game. I also take game round to my parents and avoid giving them anything too damaged. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
humperdingle Posted March 14, 2010 Report Share Posted March 14, 2010 I tend to separate the shot breasts from good ones. The good ones get frozen for use in frying etc, and the shot-up ones get trimmed of any clots and put into a casserole or cubed and frozen until I have enough.
