Buffalo Pheasant Sandwich
Go back to all recipes
As a long time Tennessee Titans season ticket member, we'll be spending our weekends at home this year watching the games ... thanks coronavirus! We're excited about our team and ready for the NFL kickoff, despite all the controversy surrounding the league this year. We think we have a decent shot at making the playoffs. Since we'll be spending all these games at home, I thought I'd share one of our favorite game day meals. This is quick, easy and cheap!! If you have a crockpot, you're good to go. We make this at my house ALL THE TIME, although we usually make it with Chicken Breast, but we decided to try it with Pheasant breast ... it's so good! This recipe doesn't need you to babysit it, just toss everything in and leave it alone. You really only need three ingredients, breast meat, buffalo sauce and dry ranch seasoning ... and maybe some type of bread to put it on. We usually eat ours on Steak Rolls, Hoagie buns, Hamburger buns or Ciabatta Rolls. Skin your breast meat and place it in the bottom of your crockpot, cover it completely with buffalo sauce then sprinkle in a packet of ranch seasoning. Set the heat on high and cook for one and a half to two hours, or if you're not in a hurry, you can set it to low and cook for about 3 ½ to 4 hours. When it's done cooking, just shred the meat with a fork, toss it back into the crock pot to combine and completely coat the meat in the buffalo sauce ... then just dream about how you want to top your sandwich. The kids like to eat theirs plain or with ranch seasoning, but I like to melt Mozzarella cheese on mine and top with Celery leaves. My wife prefers to cover hers in blue cheese and cut up pieces of celery stalk. Anyway, you do it, this Buffalo Pheasant Sandwich is going to be hot!!! It's a great fall meal to can make and enjoying while watching the football games. TITAN UP!!

Visit authors websiteYou may think cooking and recipes don’t have much to do with a website dedicated to hunting dogs ... but really, why do we hunt? Sure, we enjoy watching our dogs work in the field and being outdoors, but ultimately, hunting is about survival and feeding our families. We might as well try to do it well. I'm not a chef and definitely no food authority ... but I do like to eat and enjoy cooking. After searching for people willing to share their recipes on Gundog Central, without much success, I decided to try to do a few on my own, with my wife Tami's help. The recipes I share here are things I like to eat and have made here at home. I've tried to include step-by-step instructions with each meal describing exactly how I did it, but my method may not be best, if you decide to try a recipe posted here, please use whatever technique you think works best, I'm simply sharing how I did it. You'll see a lot of recipes where I've tried to make things from starch, when I could have just used store bought ingredients, simply because I wanted to learn how something was done. My goal is to continually update these recipes as I learn new things and techniques. These are my attempts at creating good, home cooked food, that I would like to eat! If I'm sharing it here, my family and I enjoyed it and I believe you will too.
