[QUOTE="Duckslayer100, post: 55168, member: 1485"] Honestly? Ground pheasant leg burgers. No guff. You get a TON of meat off the legs, and grinding them is the easiest way (IMHO) to get all those darn tendons out. What I do is get the legs off like you normally would with a game bird, then spend a second or two snagging the easiest tendons with a pliers and yanking them out. These are the hardest ones and most like bone, and sometimes get ground up in with the meat (no bueno). After that, simply make a stack of leg meat chunks and send them through the grinder. If you did a good job with the big tendons, all the rest of the little, frustrating bastages will be stuck harmlessly to the grinder plate. I wound up with 12 pounds of ground pheasant last year and it was all from the legs. As I said, my favorite is burgers (just season to taste, form into patties and throw on the grill). But we also like to make pheasant lettuce wraps, sloppy Joes and tacos. My 2-year-old gobbles it all up, as does the wife. If they'll eat it, you know it's good! [/QUOTE]
