First new recipe tried and cooking Pheasant

I tried out the first new recipe this year a few days ago. It was Rhubarb and Strawberry Coffee Cake.
I think I baked it a little too long as the outer ring of the coffee cake was a bit harder then I would have liked. My oven was being especially temperamental trying to bake this so it was tough to make. We all thought it was okay but nothing exciting.
Today I made a recipe I have made one other time a few weeks back called White chicken enchiladas. Instead of making it with chicken again I made it with pheasant.
To make it with pheasant I had to season, seer and bake the pheasant before shredding it. This was my first time cooking pheasant. I’d like to say it will be my last due to how disgusting it was but there’s more left in the freezer.
When I went and got groceries a few
Days ago I saw pineberries on the shelf. We’ve never had them before so I bought a package for the kids. They loved them and ate them all up.
Photos are mine.

Hmm... I'd like to try the cake. It sounds interesting.
I won't eat pheasant. It's too tough and stringy, no matter how it's cooked...
Pineberries are delicious. I've only seen them in stores here once a few years ago.

@Daddyevil here’s the recipe I used
I didn’t try any of the pineberries they were expensive and I wanted the kids to be able to have them.
My husband said he could barely taste the difference and thinks the only reason he could tell was because he knew it was in there. I was actually surprised how moist the meat was when I was pulling it off the bone. The very outer layer was a bit tough but that could be discarded if preferred. The rest of it felt exactly like shredding chicken or even more moist then that. There were some stringy pieces but I fed that part and the extremely tough parts around the joints or whatever to the dogs.

@shaggin Thank you.
I've only tried pheasant twice. I ate a little when a brother shot one when I was a kid and I ate some when a girlfriend's dad shot one when I was in my twenties. I'm not willing to try it again.

@allknowing aww how disappointing. This wasn’t burnt just a little over cooked so the edges were a bit dryer then it should have been. One piece left I plan to eat now then maybe can make something new tomorrow.

@BarbaraPrz yes they are white with a hint of pink and are supposed to taste like pineapple.
I’ve only two in person in the wild and they were pretty.

@RebeccasFarm the only thing I ate was the coffee cake. There is still two pieces left I wish someone else would eat it up so I can make something else. I ate two pieces yesterday I may have to do that again
