Pigeon and pork burger

pork and pigeon burger Jul 20

One of our friends gave us yet more pigeons recently which he had shot and clearer from a nearby field. At the same time, another friend gave me a pork joint from the other half of the pig we got in a swap (we paid for our half pig with two goats that are now pets). The pork joint wasn't wanted as my friend feared it would be too tough.

Instead of putting ever more pigeon breasts into one of our freezers, we put them through the sausage making machine which ground them up. We did the same with the pork joint (having removed the fat which will be rendered at some point soon). We combined the pigeon and pork with some breadcrumbs and a jar of mango chutney to make a rather nice sausage meat. The subsequent burgers were very pleasant!
