Default RE: wild turkey recipes

Here is the recipe I was looking for - Thanks to my wife she always can find things I have lost because of CRS!

What you'll need:
Quarter all birds
Box (es) of Uncle Ben's Long grain and wild rice mixture
Lory season salt
1 Pkg of Onion sooup mix
1 can of cream of mushroom soup
2 cups water
or 1 & 1/2 cup water
half cup cooking sherry



Forgotten Chicken ( replace the chicken with quail, chukar, pheasant, duck, goose, grouse, woodcock, TURKEY or even your boot if you have come home game-less and are hungry but don't want to do much work Whew! )

Lightly grease the bottom of the roasting pan (have made this over an open fire during deer/turkey camp in a dutch oven!)

Depending on the size roasting pan sprinkle in the rice mixture on the bottom of the greased pan
(Some times I use 2 or 3 boxes depends how big the camp is)

Season your bird quarters with the Lory seasoned salt to taste
Lay bird quarters over the dry rice mixture in the pan.
Heat the Cream of mushroom soup and add 2 cups of water of or 1 & 1/2 cups water with 1/2 cup of cooking sherry. Now if you add more rice you'll need to add more water and more soup. But one can will take of one large game bird.

Sprinkle the Uncle Ben's seasoning mix on top of the quarters. (If I use 3 to 4 boxes I don't use all the seasoning maybe half)

Sprinkle the onion soup mix over the bird quarters.

Heat oven to 300 F and set the timer for 3 hours.

WHY IS CALLED FORGOTTEN!!!!!

Do NOT OPEN the pan during this time. You'll loose the needed moisture that even can tenderize you hunting boot if you are bird-less and really hungry. Should be able to cut all meat (err.. boot) with a fork!

Mmmmmmmmm - I'm hungry now!
I made this once at Deer camp and cooked 15 whole wild mallard ducks. Had the crew standing in line at the kitchen became very crowded. Came back at noon - put the pans in the oven and set the stove to start so we could eat at 6 PM as all are back out of the woods by then. The smell drove you crazy as you walked in from the cold outside! One hunting buddy put a big mound of mashed potatoes on his plate, made a depression for gravy and plopped his duck in the middle saying "That's the last pothole this duck will see!" By the way you also have the rice which is very filling. Hope you enjoy.
