No sarcasm intended...It is just that as an old country boy, I assumed that EVERYONE knew that pigeons are fair game anytime... Great fun to shoot...They are NOT easy targets..fast and very maneuverable... Easy to clean..Just open the skin on the breast and cut the breast away..Takes maybe 30 seconds per bird.. The adults can be a bit tough, but slow moist cooking methods make them very tender... One recipe from an Italian friend of mine...Layer pigeon breasts and sliced onions in a crockpot...Pour in some dry red wine and cook on low until tender....Good stuff... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Enigma Posted August 29, 2020 Share Posted August 29, 2020 Let's cut to the chase. Somebody get a hold of Greendrake for a shoot. I travel for killing and grilling. Or in this case crock potting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
