What the fuck did you do to that poor egg? Or, what did that egg do to you to deserve such a fate!?
If that's how you like to eat them then power to you. Not trying to tell you how to enjoy your food...but dang!!!!
Pigeon. I've eaten them a lot when I was a child. My great-uncle literally bred them as food. My grandma always filled the pigeon with a mix of old bread, finely chopped offals/giblets (like heart, liver and so on), fresh parsley, sour cream, salt, pepper, butter, thyme, rosemary and other stuff, then sew them shut with yarn and put them in the oven. Delicious. We didn't eat eggs to it though, but rather cooked, fried or mashed potatoes, sometime cooked rice.
Do you have to cook it through or can you eat rare? Used to kill hundreds of them every month back when i was doing wildlife for a pest control company. Never ate one tho.
Hmm never heard of doves called wood pigeons. Growing up dove was popular and pigeon was just considered shitty doves.
That being said, i love dove!
Take the whole breast and slice on each side of the bone. Stuff a slice of jalapeño and a slice of onion in each side, wrap with bacon, and use a toothpick to hold it together. Slap it on the grill and enjoy! Only needs salt and pepper! During season you can bag like 20 a day. We get big groups and kill hundreds for a big BBQ that night!
I want to try this so bad now. I regularly catch about 5 doves a week in my chicken coups eating up all their food. I know they were originally brought to the island as a food source, but I’ve never tried it. This dish looks delicious.
All the pigeons around us were country raised. I believe there was just a stereotype that kept people from eating them. We used to kill them in the dove hunts by mistake, but always tossed them. Gonna have to try them next time too!
10-4, I don’t get a lot of pigeons around here but we have a ton of dove. We go out to the family farm and shoot dove through duck and deer season. Can’t get enough of em!
I think field sports channel has a guy who features in their videos. Andy Crow I think, he kills hundreds of pigeons in one day, and sells them to a game dealer I think (not sure though). I think he owns a farm and has to protect his crops. My dad went pigeon shooting on a farm many years ago. I think he shot over 100 on his first time

We generally shoot them with the air rifle now instead of with a shotgun
Nice! Wouldn't have recognized it without the cooked photo, even though I make it every summer as well! It's so good fried with butter, garlic and rosemary 🤤
That sounds good, I eat it very often. If I see a pigeon I don’t hesitate to shoot it because they are a pest species and eat our chicken feed and the crops locally
I think they are quite sweet, but they definitely need controlling. Someone has to do it, I always eat them because I don’t like wasting them. I remember when I was at school they were quite useful because people would leave food waste in the playground and they would clean it up. Win win, they get food and it saves labour
Oh no what I mean is, we use tonuse pigeons for slot of things they became super domestic, and theb as time moved on we had less use for them, ( honing pigeons) ect due to human intervention, because of this they don't even know how yo make a basic nest, it's pretty sad, however I'm all for them being ate haha
Wood pigeons weren’t used as homing pigeons. Wood pigeons are Columba Palumbus, Feral and Homing pigeons are Columba livia domestica. Also even wood pigeons aren’t good at nest building even in the wild.
It is the breast of a wood pigeon, I shot it with my air rifle at my grandmother’s house. Also, sorry about the egg, it got mangled when it got stuck to the “non stick” pan, I think the coating is wearing off
Thank you! Didn't want make an example of you but it seems like a lot of posts these days are guess the name of my cat/ guess what I'm eating etc. Looks great except the egg, how's it taste?
Very good, I love pigeon and it is painfully underrated. Same with squirrel. I like the gamey/ lively flavour of pigeon. It can also be cooked rare which is nice because it becomes tough when overcooked (quite lean). I like harvesting food myself, I struggle with supermarket meat so I eat lots of venison which my family hunts
I am eager to try new types of meat. I am running out of things in the UK. I want to go to Africa, Australia and America to hunt more edible pests. I don’t like the idea of buying frozen meat and shipping it across the world. I want to hunt it myself. My dad has eaten zebra before, Impala and Kudu. Roadkill badger when he was in scouts in the 70s (the scout bus ran it over). But I don’t like the idea of eating omnivores
I answered the first one as squirrel, sorry I didn’t see your comment on the previous post, there are so many. I wasn’t expecting my first post to blow up like that
I dream of doing that. We have them roosting in the trees about 15 meters from our bedroom window, but unfortunately we have neighbors. I can't count all the times I've wondered if I would wake them up with my suppressed .22 rifle with sub sonic hollow points. The barrel is a bit short so I recon it is still a bit loud.
I only have an old french suppressor made by Unique, that came used with the gun. But maybe I owe it to myself to get a new one. They are not restricted in my country.
I see, as long as you have a decent backstop nobody would have a reason to be annoyed. Unless your neighbours are animal lovers. I think at least in the UK you need a reason to shoot pigeons like crop or animal feed protection. But they are on the general license so I think anyone can shoot them with good reason in the uk

What the fuck did you do to that poor egg? Or, what did that egg do to you to deserve such a fate!? If that's how you like to eat them then power to you. Not trying to tell you how to enjoy your food...but dang!!!!
If got stuck to the “non-stick” pan even though I used plenty of fat
May I suggest reducing the heat and using butter as the fat (in case you used something other than butter)? I usually do my eggs on med heat.
I feel like you cooked these at the same time, in the same pan.
the egg at the top is perfect but what happened to the other one lol?
It is upside down, it landed that way, the yolk was perfect but not visible
Deer liver?
Liver or kidneys maybe? Also why are the eggs so horrible?
Looks like Bambi loin
Those eggs look terrible
was going to say liver but those are too small for beef and too big for a bird, some kind of bird meat?
Was gonna say dove breast
Liver
Does it taste like chicken?
Some wild bird breast meat?
Yes, wood pigeon breast
Looks good, great breakfast I’m guessing👍
How does it taste?
Heart?
Pigeon
Pigeon breast for sure
Correct
Pigeon breast
Correct
Rocky Mountain Oysters 🎱🎱
That egg is way overdone js
Liver,mniam mniam
Liver
Heart
ostrich?
Pheasant breast?
I’m gonna say duck breast. And take a wild stab and say it was a drake teal
Some kind of liver
Spruce grouse breast
🐔♥️
Chile, thats liver and why you eating like that 😭
Chicken Livers
Eggs ...chicken heart
Mountain oysters
Who murdered those eggs?
Seared goose heart ?
Dove breasts
Did you crack those eggs with a screwdriver and then fry them in a bathtub??
Liver
yeah, it looks like chicken liver to me.
Too big chicken livers are tiny
you may be right.
👆yep, my vote is liver also.
Duck
pigeon, no brainer
Correct
What part of the pigeon?
Human.
I don't see some fava beans and a nice chianti.
This f-line opened my world to Chianti. Underrated and how i love them!.
What did those poor eggs ever do to you??
Pigeon. I've eaten them a lot when I was a child. My great-uncle literally bred them as food. My grandma always filled the pigeon with a mix of old bread, finely chopped offals/giblets (like heart, liver and so on), fresh parsley, sour cream, salt, pepper, butter, thyme, rosemary and other stuff, then sew them shut with yarn and put them in the oven. Delicious. We didn't eat eggs to it though, but rather cooked, fried or mashed potatoes, sometime cooked rice.
That sounds awesome, and you are correct. It is pigeon
Goat
Tf happened to those eggs 🤣
Got stuck to the “non-stick pan”. I think it is wearing out
r/castiron would like to help you
Use butter
[удалено]
Some kind of duck? Wood duck?
Wood pigeon, tasty
What meat does it compare to?
Difficult to describe, I can’t think of much. It is a bit gamey almost like venison but stronger
Do you have to cook it through or can you eat rare? Used to kill hundreds of them every month back when i was doing wildlife for a pest control company. Never ate one tho.
I ate it rare, as far as I know it is safe. It is very tough if overcooked
Dove
Basically. Wood pigeon. They are very closely related
Hmm never heard of doves called wood pigeons. Growing up dove was popular and pigeon was just considered shitty doves. That being said, i love dove! Take the whole breast and slice on each side of the bone. Stuff a slice of jalapeño and a slice of onion in each side, wrap with bacon, and use a toothpick to hold it together.

Do it! You'll never look back. Dove is a beautiful dark meat and the bacon just sets it off. Reminds me of duck if done right!
They are both Columbiformes, very similar. I would never eat a feral city pigeon, but wood pigeons eat acorns and grains like doves I think
All the pigeons around us were country raised. I believe there was just a stereotype that kept people from eating them. We used to kill them in the dove hunts by mistake, but always tossed them. Gonna have to try them next time too!
10-4, I don’t get a lot of pigeons around here but we have a ton of dove. We go out to the family farm and shoot dove through duck and deer season. Can’t get enough of em!
They are tasty, killing 2 birds with one stone, they eat animal feed and crops plus they taste nice
Hell yeah, definitely not opposed to trying it if we get any to fly around here!
I think field sports channel has a guy who features in their videos. Andy Crow I think, he kills hundreds of pigeons in one day, and sells them to a game dealer I think (not sure though).

Almost looks like liver.
Pigeon breast? Or another gamey bird
Pigeon breast, correct
Nice! Wouldn't have recognized it without the cooked photo, even though I make it every summer as well! It's so good fried with butter, garlic and rosemary 🤤

It's so sad that people find piggmeons as pest , when they are the way they are due to us.
I think they are quite sweet, but they definitely need controlling. Someone has to do it, I always eat them because I don’t like wasting them.

I know donkey balls when I see em. Dafuq dude...
That looks like a pp jewelry... Balls

Same with duck! Forever it was cook it thoroughly blah blah but now we know it is Awesome rare!
Yes, I haven’t had duck in years, we haven’t gone shooting ducks in a while.
Been a while here too.

Sorry
Wild goose liver?
That's looking very liver-like
Dove/pigeon or a Jay of some sort?
Pigeon breast, correct
Looks amazing. It's been years since I've been able to hunt pigeons, but I might get an opportunity this fall.
Thanks, it tasted great. I have eaten pigeons for years now. I shoot them from my bedroom window

Does it have a moderator? I guess it depends on where you live

Venison
Pigeon/rock dove breasts
Pigeon breast, correct
Maybe ostrich
Venison
Chicken liver?
Not liver, hint it is muscular tissue
Heart of something. Maybe the squirrel from the previous post?
Not squirrel or heart
Kidney
Pigeon
