Don’t cook pheasant like chicken

Ruined my first two birds before learning this! Pheasant is way leaner than store chicken, so it dries out super fast. The flavor is amazing though - richer and more earthy with that subtle gamey taste. Breast meat goes from tender to tough in minutes if overcooked. Now I brine overnight and cook low with moisture. What's your go-to method for keeping pheasant juicy? #hunting #PheasantCooking #GameMeat #WildGameCooking
