My neighbor killed one in his yard and gave it to me. My wife and I processed it and tried the meat but found it so tough we couldn't eat it. We tried several ways of preparing it taking care not to over cook or any of the other things that are supposed to make them tough but all to no avail. I have been boiling it and slicing it for the dogs lately and even they have a hard time with it. I understand that this particular bird had been seen in the area for quite some time and didn't have any fat at all so possibly a diet of whatever he/she could scrounge in the woods plus staying out of the way of Coyotes and Bobcats made it pretty tough.
