It’s 7:15 and I have a ring neck and a suzie. Life is good.

A high of 81 degrees here yesterday. Hard to get too excited just yet. Cooler mornings help though.

Never acquired a taste for Ringnecks. All the one I shot ended up tasting like day old minnows. Love Mallards and Wood ducks.

It’s been several years since I’ve had ring neck so I really can’t remember. They’re such small ducks that I just filleted the breasts. I think I’ll bring them to Florida, cook them on my “Blackstone” while sipping a margarita by the pool. I hope they taste good. I’m thinking Lowery's seasoning and maybe some onions. What do you think?

Congrats! Ringnecks normally have pretty decent fat. My buddies and I like to keep the skin on the breasts and then cook them in a cast iron skillet. Skin side down first to render the fat. Pretty tasty

Yes, I left the skin on for that reason. Thanks for the tip on “skin down”.

Jeff,

I use either a steak rub or Old Bay seasoning if you can find it.
