Greg’s Pheasant Phattie

A delicious fall and winter entrée to enjoy while creating memories. Greg (Memphis’ Technician, Customer Service and Resident Cook) and Ziggy, his beloved German Wirehair, had a successful pheasant hunt in South Dakota this year. We're sure you'll enjoy his recipe. We recommend using pecan or apple pellets for this recipe, which serves 4.
