I had the fortune to shoot some Snow Geese recently. The meat is awesome. I know that tradition for most is to just breast the birds but I wanted to share that the leg meat is delicious. I just brined, rinsed, and used a modern Confit recipe. Confit is an old technique where the meat is slow cooked immersed in fat (preferably from the same animal). Duck Confit is a classic. Anyways, my geese had very little fat so I used what I had, bacon grease. I lightly peppered the meat and vacuum sealed with a good dollop of bacon grease. I then sealed that bag in a second bag. Then placed the bag in a crockpot of water and cooked on low for 24+ hours. It was probably done sooner but I did it over Thanksgiving and was otherwise occupied. The meat came out falling off the bones, extremely tender, and delicious. Very mild flavor and nice texture. Think a good slow cooked pork butt. The bacon grease did add a slight porky flavor. Very good eats and doubled the yield vs. just breast meat. We did shredded goose taco's initially and the whole family enjoyed them. I have since been taking bowls with beans and rice to work. I have enjoyed the chance to extend the satisfaction of a successful hunt over many meals. This method worked so well I plan to try with other game meats. I think slow cooking in fat will yield a very tender meal.

Squirrel hunting question
savagman replied to AZHUNTER05's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
I have noticed a decline. Not a biologist but I suspect population fluctuates with moisture. Drought has most small game numbers down. Saw decent numbers in 6A this past weekend. Will PM you. -

I agree. But don't ever fret about asking a question. You didn't deserve to be marginalized or attacked. Sometimes I come unhinged when dealing with crappy people. I am reminded on "Deep Thoughts" by Jack Handy. “Sometimes I think you have to march right in and demand your rights, even if you don’t know what your rights are, or who the person is you’re talking to. Then on the way out, slam the door.” Exits stage left, slams the door loudly.... -
Maybe I don't understand the humor in criticizing everyone and everything. Rarely a positive comment. But he is active.....

Not gone. Have an actual life, not just trolling on forums... -
You are right. I apologize. But why let trphyguy crap on everyone for years? It was time someone called him out.

Your time is up. No more time for a Twitter fight with a grumpy asshole. Was mildly entertaining at first but ultimately not fruitful as you will continue being a dick to new members or anyone else you want to belittle. Hope you get off your computer, take the Depends off, and actually get out there and hunt.

"Forums aren’t as popular as they used to be. Use me as your bogieman though". I was simply addressing your excuse. I look at CWT.com as a form of social media. The forum is the site. When people ask questions and get crapped on, they don't come back. Glad you have friends.

Yup. Social media and forums just lost popularity.... Not. Trolls like you that hide behind a screen and hate on everyone are to blame. You post so much you probably don't have a life or time to actually hunt. As I've said before, we should support each other. Infighting only helps the anti's win.

Not mad at all. Pointing out that this young man was proud of his Javelina and you crapped on him. Others said, great job, congrats, you had to crap on him. Prove me wrong. Show me how positive and encouraging you have been. You won't be able to do that because you have been a turd to too many people. Here's your mirror. Take a look at the POS you've been to fellow CWT members and fellow hunters

Why is that? Because this guy is a dick and craps on everyone. Cancer on this site.

Pretty sure I'm not the one who would agree.... Needed to be said sooner.
