Default Shot my first Sandhill crane! Any recipes?

I went out this morning for opening weekend here in Oklahoma. It was the best day of duck hunting I've had since I started several years ago. Maybe it's my new Mossberg 935 and 3.5" shells. Anyways, I've never brought home more than one duck at a time. Today I got six! I was sitting in my blind and a sandhill crane flew over. I blasted him three times. He crashed down in the water, which was very shallow, and started running away! A couple more rounds slowed him down. This thing is enormous. He took forever to clean too. Has anybody ever shot one of these things? What are some good recipes? Thanks! Matt
