Neighbour just came round with 3 brace of pheasant for a quid per brace. That's what I call a bargain!

Now where did that pheasant recipe thread get to?

Total bargain, if they are young then you could so worse than simply roasting a couple.

When you roast pheasant, do you just cut them in half and plonk each half on a plate? Or do you carve them up? I find half a bird rather daunting, and I can never get the meat off without spilling veg all over the place. But I also find a lightly roast pheasant difficult to carve.
Never found a solution to this, which is why I normally chop them up.
Anyone up for an article on how to eat half a bird without getting it all over you?

You could post a series of photo's of your pheasant eating technique and we could offer hints about where you're going wrong if you like.

As I'm the only one to eat them in our house it doesn't matter. If people don't mind I'd suggest pulling the whole cooked breast off and cutting the leg off and serving like that. If they want more after that then throw them the carcass.

The aforementioned birds were not good enough for roasting, so we skinned and jointed them all in the end.
Lots of pheasant curry. Yum!
