WHAT ARE YOU DOING????!!!!????!!!! you can’t just fry Pigeons in a pan! They’ll have no room to swim around! You must always fry them in a Jacuzi tub, that way they get to experience their last few moments of life knowing what it’s like to be a Penguin.

Thanks Mark.

weebaldman August 21, 2009 at 3:01 am

Anyone know if you use olive oil in the pan for cooking… I want to try this soon… Thanks.

Fantastic video, and it’s great of you to post this with quality cooking instructions too. A true gentleman.

Fantistic video. Is there any chance that you will be including venison in a future video?

robeeyay September 6, 2009 at 12:59 pm

Brilliant film. Medium-rare pigeon is the best tasting game meat.
