Title: My first Grouse!
Post by: huntsman_trev on October 11, 2015, 02:13:37 PM: Finally got my first grouse! Drove up to some logging roads after hiking up a mountain and almost hit the darn thing! ran out right in front of me! got out started looking for him, finally get the shot I'm looking for he then he moves, I do also. As soon as I take the shot he bobs his little head away! :bash: I try following him and leads me to about 5 others. manage to take one with my 10/22 after flushing them all and trying to find the darn things. I thought I'd share and say thank you to all for the awesome posts and great information! :tup: last thing, any good recipes you know off the top of your heads? thanks!

I like to cut the breasts into strips, roll in flower with salt and pepper and fry them up in the pan with canola oil (or something similar). Simple, but awesome. "Grouse nuggets" like that might be my kids' favorite meal.

We usually slice the breasts into 1/2-3/4" steaks dredge in flour and fry golden brown then make a good pan gravy out of the pan drippings and serve over fried potatoes.
