{"product_id":"poultry-guinea-fowl-3lb","title":"Poultry - Guinea Fowl 4-5lb","description":"\u003cp\u003eGuinea fowl sits in a fascinating middle ground between chicken and wild game. It’s technically poultry, but its flavor leans toward the richer, slightly earthy taste you’d expect from birds that actually move around outside. Think of it as chicken with more personality.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePoultry – Guinea Fowl (Approx. 4-5 lb)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur pasture-raised guinea fowl delivers deep, clean poultry flavor with a slightly gamey edge that chefs love. Leaner than chicken but more flavorful, guinea fowl has firm, tender meat and beautifully crisp skin when roasted. This bird is raised on open pasture and allowed to forage naturally, producing meat that’s dense, juicy, and packed with real farm flavor.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAt around 4.5 pounds, it’s the perfect size for an elegant dinner for two to four people. The flavor pairs beautifully with rustic ingredients like garlic, thyme, mushrooms, root vegetables, and butter-based sauces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBest Way to Prepare Guinea Fowl\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause guinea fowl is leaner than chicken, the key is cooking it in a way that preserves moisture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClassic Herb Butter Roast (Best Method)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. Bring the bird to room temperature and pat dry.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. Rub generously with salt, pepper, and softened butter mixed with garlic, thyme, and lemon zest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3. Roast at 375°F (190°C) for about 60–75 minutes, depending on size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4. Baste occasionally and roast until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) at the thigh.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e5. Let it rest 10 minutes before carving.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor extra flavor, roast it on a bed of onions, carrots, and potatoes so the drippings turn into an instant pan sauce.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePro Tip: Wrapping the breast with a little bacon or covering loosely with foil for the first half of cooking helps keep the lean breast meat juicy while the legs finish cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe result is crisp golden skin and meat that tastes like chicken’s more sophisticated cousin—rich, slightly nutty, and deeply satisfying. Perfect for a Sunday roast or a dinner that feels a little more special than the usual bird.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Wiser Meats","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47528865235170,"sku":"25200","price":97.0,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0084\/6158\/2372\/files\/rn-image_picker_lib_temp_e18bfd66-637c-4b0b-9d68-f98f6d668ef5.jpg?v=1772911783","url":"https:\/\/www.wisermeats.com\/products\/poultry-guinea-fowl-3lb","provider":"Wiser Meats","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
