Hunting and Cooking Montana Pheasants with Ryan Callaghan and Chef Kevin Gillespie

Рет қаралды 272,214

2 жыл бұрын

Ol Cal, Chef Kevin, and Snort knock off work a bit early one day to hunt some of the last of the season’s Montana pheasants. With a couple plump roosters in hand they return to Cal’s place so that Kevin can show him a classic French dish that transforms the tough to use legs and thighs of the pheasant into a meal fit for a king; or at least a hungry upland hunter.

@johnnybuckbrush 2 жыл бұрын

Hunting over corn and cooking pheasant legs for hours is really making the common hunter think this is the way ;) Public land pheasant legs, some steak seasoning, cast iron with bacon grease, and finishing off with your favorite BBQ dry seasoning works well also.

@jjg8457 2 жыл бұрын

The whole point of Meateater is to expand cooking game meat beyond that though, which makes it more fun and exciting to hunt more things. For me at least. Simple is always great too

@sonar357 Жыл бұрын

I’ve always felt that meat I’ve procured myself (fish, deer, pheasant, etc) tastes better even with simple recipes (like breaded and fried fish filets) than the same thing in restaurants. Even places that are halfway decent at preparing good food or use ‘fresh caught’ ingredients. And I think it’s psychological, you not only know where the meat came from but you put in the effort to get it. And so there’s what I call the ‘victory flavor’ to it.

If you are adding lemon juice for flavor as well as the acid consider adding the lemon zest. It adds another level of flavor. Every time I add citrus juice I also add the zest.
