wtf?  Where you gonna get either one of those, Mack?...  I'm in, for trying to eat it, if you kill the thing first.     I don't wanna fight either one of those bastards.

I got this mental picture of the ostrich trying to force you into the pellet smoker!

?

Well you know we had a lot of folks decided to raise  ostrichs to make cowboy ostrich skin boots and emus back in the 1990s and then gave up and quit. Well some of them can be found in the wild. Them EMUs for their oil Emus are mean suckers but a round of 00 buckshot or a .308 round to the head turns them in to a dead bird. I was thinking maybe a big ass smoker would be plenty big, They don't get real big here in the wild, hogs pretty well keep them on the run,

Are you going to make black bean chili with them?

[mrmackc]

Nope, probably will do some  grilled veggies and some tatters and giblets gravy and a bushel of cornbread dressing. Anyone want a big drumstick? Maybe I should do the drumsticks like a glazed ham?

I have to find out if there is a special big bird  season, reckon? Wash should know, he probably has a couple in his freezer.

I’ve eaten ostrich, fucking delicious 

[mrmackc]

Smoked ostrich steaks smothered in garlic butter!

 

....and a hard boiled ostrich egg, deviled ostrich egg anyone? it takes 90 minutes to boil one egg!

Never had the egg, but would! I love ostrich meat. So good! Hard to come by though

That would cut down on how many eggs used for breakfast at the fall shoot.

No shiit.  Greg would have to back himself down from a dozen eggs for breakfast, to only 3...

Fucking Savage, I'm telling you...

That was nothing less than miraculous the way Greg executed the egg distribution at the Fall Shoot. Definitely moved him up a notch in my estimation, which was considerable to begin with...

 

P.S. @Alan Waters sorry about your thread brother, this is a way of life around here. Just embrace the train wreck... 

... and awesome recipe!

Never had burger but a steak or roast is just like a nice red meat.

[mrmackc]

We still have them out here in Texas.

[DNP]

We still have our RuddFukkers too. They might even have Black Bean Chili.

I always liked smothering my burger at Fuddruckers with nacho cheese and jalapeños
