Ain't no cookin' in this one.

Best Dove anything I ever had was Pickled Dove Breasts. The lady who made it was a master of her craft. Those things were Grrrrrreeat. Fish one out, put it on a cracker, one big bite and it was gone.

She said that if the guys would clean them she could rinse and pickle as much as they got with no problem.

I do eat the dove I shoot, but my favorite bird is quail and I shoot a lot of them. Recipes are interchangable. Next is pheasant, then chuckar. Don't have any grouse in my area, but I've hunted them elsewhere.
