I was wondering if any of you have brined a pheasant or wild duck. Wild duck can be dry if you don't cook it right. Just wondering.[p]spoof

    spoofer, Only wild geese and turkey, but IMO, any fowl can be improved via the brining. Try it and let us know! There may be some advantages of the additives to the brine per species. Others may know for sure..

    Smokin' Todd, Ya, a buddy dropped off two fresh still kickin geese that I had to hurry and defeather. Boy did I have the ground covered. I wanted em whole for a first time. (less cavity parts) Brined em for about 36 hours and then did em at 300 degrees just like a turkey. They were great! C~W[p]
