re: Do you actually enjoy eating Dove?

I usually do a gumbo with andouille or do poppers but this year I’m trying something new, stir fry. I use Hank Shaw’s recipe for deer stir fry where you “velvet” the meat and will likely do the dove the same way.

Theyre excellent in a white wine gravy, or really any gravy

When I've dove hunted in Argentina, the guides sear the Dove breast in the field and make street tacos while we drink a few Quilmes.

The tacos taste great.

Some grocery stores carry it.

I like them best cooked down slow smothered in onions on top of biscuits. The best way I've ever had them was cooked by some good ole baws from Georgia. They battered and fried the breasts, then threw them in a white gravy, and we ate them over mashed potatoes. Frickin outstanding. I'll eat them any way you make them, and if you get tired of eating them, just let me know and I'll come take them off your hands to help make room in your freezer. Better yet, just put them in the fridge in a trash bag and I'll come breast them out myself.

Ya, that actually sounds pretty good. My problem is probably not mixing it up enough with recipes

We found them west of Hobbs, NM.
One veteran dove hunter said they were thick as mosquitos in the marsh.
Going back in September and will try yalls suggestions.
