Smoked Game Recipes
Wild game is highly variable in its quality, so there's no guarantee that these recipes will turn out moist and tender every time. Wild Game Smoking TipsHere are some wild game recipes that I've used with great success. Combining bacon with venison adds fat that ups the flavor and the moistness of the roast. The pheasant is wrapped in the skin from chicken leg quarters, which works well at keeping the meat from drying.Marinating and smoking the goose breast turns it into a real treat! I have to give thanks to my neighbor and friend Jeff for the bacon wrapped dove recipe. Thanks, Jeff! The duck and quail recipes will help you turn your birds into some fine eating. I hope you enjoy the recipes! Smoked Game Recipes
Grilled Game Recipes
You don't have to be a hunter to enjoy these recipes. Pen raised venison and pheasant are becoming more and more common, and can be found at specialty meat shops or online. I have a few more recipes in the works. There are POUNDS of Canada goose breasts in my freezer just begging to be smoked. I also have some wild turkey, venison, pheasant and dove breasts. That should keep the old meat smoker busy! While you're out there in the field, I wish you good luck. And be careful out there!

Techniques including basting, brining, and combination cooking can help an otherwise dry cut of game meat turn out more tender and moist than it would be otherwise.
