Had a buddy give me a pheasant. Was going to smoke it on the egg but not really sure if that is the best route. Anyone with some good suggestions on what to do with it ?

Wild or pen raised bird? Wild birds have very little fat. Think gumbo, smothered in a gravy or fried. Cut into strips and fry the breast and legs, it is excellent.

Fried sounds like a good option.

The only way I've ever had it was fried and smothered in gravy. It was really good

The Outdoor Board might have some recipes for you as well

I like to take wild pheasant breast and cut them into strips and marinate them for a few hours in an Asian inspired sauce. soy sauce, sugar, garlic, ginger, lime zest, cilantro etc etc.

Then i put the strips on skewers and grill them super hot and fast on the pit with some type of siracha honey dipping sauce. It's spectacular!
