after reading you might ask yourself, "If I were to buy a peacock, would I keep it as a pet or eat it?" Tough choice I know. Its never crossed my mind to try peacock meat, but Mr.Charly Zhao that sounds like a splendid idea. Presuming that the bird you purchase is one of the non-endangered India Peafowl Pavo cristatus (Asiatic) as opposed to the endangered Green Peafowl, Pavo muticus (Asiatic), are there any good arguments against the consumption of one of these birds? If not, is there anyone with experience in peacock cooking or simply a desire to try peacock interested in investing in an opportunity to sample this rare delicacy with me?

The Huntington Museum in Los Angeles has peacocks all around the museum grounds (former residence of the Huntington clan). They're rather noisy birds...and if you've never been - go visit the museums - lots of rare and magnificent artworks - and it's not uncommon to see asians strolling around the grounds (despite the keep off the green signs) being scolded by the staff as they troll for "free" fruit on the trees.

hi,sean1.I would like to share the experience of peacock cooking.Well, I used travel to Xishuangbanna in Yunnan several years ago.In the forest park, my brother-in-law orderd "peacock soup". The local people cooked it as chiken soup. I tried the meat and found it's harden than chiken meat,and the soup tasted just like chiken soup also.
I knew it's so cruel to this beautiful creature.but i still tried.God,please forgive me!

Maybe try a peahen. They're the female sex of the peacock species. Because they don't have the huge beautiful tail feathers of the male peacock, they're clearly more ethical to kill and eat.
