Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Food, Cooking, and Game Preparation White Meat, or Dark Meat?

Breast man myself. 🤠 The legs are the only dark meat I’ll eat.

made southern fried chicko on Sunday, gonna make it again this Sunday, because i still have another 4 cups of buttermilk

Dark.


Boneless thighs are the bomb.
Pretend they are boneless breast,
But with flavor and juice.

We like to get those great big chicken hips,
bone and skin them.
Then roll them up around homemade stuffing.
Tooth pick them together and bake.
Bones and skin make broth to mix with drippings.

Gravy, 'taters.

F'n keto since memorial day!

That's me, although I do like the thighs as well as I do the legs. That's on a chicken, on a turkey I'm 100% a white meat eater.

I too will eat it all including the liver, gizzard & heart. But dark is my preference. The super treat is those 2 little nuggets on the backbone. The desert is that little yellow piece of fat(probably a ligament) in the knee joint.

I must try feet someday.

I prefer dark meat and chicken thighs are great when smoked with alderwood. Just finished a batch of thighs that I smoked after being marinated in white vinegar.

My mom used to call those back nuggets the “oysters”.

I kept the feet’s from our chickens when we butchered this year. I’m a little ascared to cook them. 😳

I prefer Chicken McNuggets, which are they?

Dark.

I have tried chicken feet, My curiosity in regards to chicken feet is pretty much satisfied.

The oysters are some of the tastiest meat on a turkey, I always make sure they find their way onto my plate. I also like gizzards, hearts and livers, gravy made with the neck is some of the best.

Thighs are my favorite.

I buy Turkey thighs on sale after Thanksgiving, and put them in the freezer for later.

Sure make good soup!

wild turkey all the better

I’d rather have the dark meat

For Thanksgiving dinner I like the white meat smothered in gravy. For the leftovers, sandwiches, salad, I like the dark meat.
