John if they are pests, let me know, Ill come rid you of them. Free of charge.
In the Normandy province of France they are a delicacy. Known as Becasse. they are delicious. do not over cook. should be med rare at best. filet the breasts and Rollin some egg, flour, salt, pepper and saute' for about 2 minutes. saute' some onions and mushrooms and serve as an app or if you have enough, a meal. don't believe the old wives tales about tasting like worms.

If you overcook them they are tough and taste like liver. The simplest way to cook IMO is breast them out and put a slice of Jalapeno in a small slit in the breast, wrap in bacon and put them on the grill. When the bacon is done, they are done. PS. Did I mention not to overcook them.

Don't bother with them. Let them fly back north in the spring, and we'll deal with them next October.

They're wonderful, John. Gil will be along, maybe tomorrow morning early. He'll give you a recipe that he gave me. Tough to beat.

Yes, key is to not over cook, also to complement with something like a mushroom risotto

I dice the breasts and sautée them with onions and celery, and use it to prepare stuffing for Ruffed grouse. Be cautious not to over roast the grouse.
Quite edible.
Best, Ted
