Fall of 2011 one of our 4 or 5 month old Black Jersey Giant pullets was attacked by a bobcat. I chased the bobcat off, but the pullet died moments later. I decided to butcher her (partly because I was considering getting meat birds the following spring and wanted to know whether I could do it). We ended up brining her in the salt water in the refridgerator for two or three days and then my husband cooked her in our smoker. If memory serves, she was just as tasty as the corish game hens we buy when they go on sale and cook in the smoker.Hummingbirdhollow any advice on the cooking of my roos? I would like to smoke them...but sounds like that will not be much of an option ????
