Our guinea fowl have lean, tender, and tasty dark meat. The meat is actually 50% lower in fat than chicken yet full of flavor! Guinea hens have a varied diet which contributes to their full flavor which has been described as similar yet less gamey than pheasant or as one customer stated "better than the tastiest chicken you’ve ever had"! Guinea hens can be prepared in the same fashion as a whole chicken. We recommend cooking to medium temperature so it doesn’t dry out since there is less fat than chicken. Frequent basting will also contribute to a juicy bird!
