Grouse OYO

[Deertick]

I\'m hoping to supplement my diet with grouse next week.

At this point, I have nothing packed for that ... no pots/pans (we\'re Mountain House eaters on this trip) or seasoning.

Weight, though, is not a huge issue ... so, let me know what you\'d take to make a decent, edible meal out of a mountain chicken.

John, I always take a small plastic bottle of olive oil, that and salt & pepper. Pan fry and enjoy!

So, add \"Pan\", and \"Olive Oil in small bottle\" and \"Salt & Pepper\" to packing list. Can do.

Should I bring an onion?

John,

Last Year, I took the breast, cut it in big chunks, and dropped it in my Jetboil pot after I got the water boiling. No Seasoning...best lunch I had all Season, hands down!

K.I.S.S. ya know?

If a little weight isn\'t an issue, a skillet with a small bottle of cooking oil & either flour or Italian mix progreso . None of the guys in our party will pass up a grouse. Pan fried grouse is a favorite in our camp.

I dunno John, I thought the grouse we had up there last year was pretty tasty, grilled over the fire, sprinkled with wild carrot??

I haven\'t shot one yet for different reasons but I think grouse season should start with elk season. It\'s dumb that you can\'t hunt them until Sept 1 here. I could have taken two this past Saturday but Nooooo, Colorado and their weird rules.
