About Ruffed grouse meat

Ruffed grouse meat is the edible flesh of the ruffed grouse, a wild game bird. The meat is lean, pale to light brown depending on the cut, and has a mild game-bird flavour. Breast meat and darker leg meat differ in texture and cooking needs.

It is sold or prepared as whole dressed birds, breast portions or other cuts, and can be roasted, braised or otherwise cooked thoroughly. As with other game, age, handling and the particular cut can influence tenderness and flavour.
