I'll be starting with a pre-decapitated bird, thank you. ;) I was surprised by the verdict on bread sauce. I've never seen it before and it looked like it would be bland. I might make a pan sauce with the meat drippings while the birds rest. Waz, did you eat that onion plain and whole? Thanks for this!

Waz and Lenny, love your posts keep it up its really fab to see you guys in the kitchen, also bread sauce, great on sandwiches the next day... although chicken should never be eaten pink game often should not - you note that lenny said ‘blushing’ not raw! also the guy who said about it not being yummy should just try it - pig as a seasoning…yes think of the fat and salt.

I was surprised to see you guys eating these when there was still some pink on them. Maybe I just came from a paranoid family. :) It sounded really good. I've never had Partridge so it was fun to watch. Thanks!

A gutted undercooked little bird as the main, pig as a seasoning, an onion as a side, and bread as a sauce... mmmmmm.... tasty... fun to watch, but don't think I'll be making that at home!

I'll admit that I was a little worried that maybe you had included some of the earlier part in there, and wasn't sure if I was up for that, so thanks for starting where you did. NIce one guys!

Game needs to be hung for a few days -- not until there are maggots as many people thing, that's totally wrong, but long enough for the flavour to develop. Also, I think 7 minutes, as you discovered, is way too little and you really should have let them rest. They do need to be cooked through and although they tend to be dry they would be more tender. I'm a fan of braising game which keeps the moisture inn. All that said, I thought they looked good and I'm madly jealous as they cost me an arm and a leg here. I was brought up on game so it's a real nostalgia thing for me. Cheers! Liz I feel that your partriges were way too fresh which is why the flesh was so pale and the texture on the tough side.

I think I see the bit you mean - Lenny didn't stamp her foot, she was shuffling her chair back away from the table a bit. I think that's the noise. It's a bit cramped up that end of the table.
