The tasteless, genetically modified supermarket chicken is officially called a Cornish Rock. The true Dark Cornish on the other hand is a delicious rare variety of chicken. To avoid possible confusion we like to refer to this chicken by its original name: Indian Game. The “game� name was given because the true Dark Cornish is a descendent of an Indonesian breed raised to be a fighting bird. Our Indian Games, which came to the USA via England, are absolutely luscious tasting and are so authentic and pure they have even retained their fighting look.
One of the reasons this variety lost favor is because it grows so slowly: 20 weeks rather than 5 weeks. But Frank Reese has held this genetic line since 1974 when he acquired two breeder birds from poultry experts Tommy Reece and Vincent Farro. The new generation of Indian Games we have available this week has been raised by Bob and Dee Mejstrik who own Wild Rose Farm and Apiary located in the scenic Loess Hills just outside of Glenwood, Iowa.
Indian Game meat is darker and firmer with a better texture than the commercial kind. The flavor is not gamey but "heavy" - a term used to describe a deep chicken essence.
This is the first FRESH supply of chickens in 2007, and since the next group will need time to grow in numbers, the Dark Cornish Indian Game chickens will not be available again for a long while.</font></P>
