<p>Channel your inner woodsman and start cooking game birds at home tonight. You don&#39;t have to be a rugged hunter-type to sling a whole pheasant into the oven and serve it up with foraged mushrooms. No, sir. With this technique, anyone can cook whole game birds at home with confidence. And though the size of the birds might suggest otherwise (they&#39;re small), the meat is packed with flavor, and can be remarkably juicy and tender if cooked properly. Here, we use a whole squab, but you can mimic the same procedure for any of the game varieties you like. We&#39;re not saying you can catch &#39;em, but we&#39;re certain you can cook &#39;em.
