It’s a dark “white” meat.

There is a variance in opinion as to whether it’s white or red meat, however it’s cooked like a red meat (can be eaten medium rare), even though it is technically a white meat/breast meat.

I mean it’s Fowl so technically white? It’s just, like dark meat chicken there is heavier fats in certain areas.

(USDA Definition) Red meat = Mammals, more myoglobin White meat = Birds

Ducks are red in my book while I consider pork to be white (even though it’s not.)
I blame “growing up in the 70s where trichinosis was a thing and pork turned into shoe leather and was wallpaper-paste white.

I would say white because it is a healthy food

I’d consider it red because you can cook it to your liking instead of a strict 165 like chicken.

I like red wine with. This looks top tier by the way.

Genuine question…. Why would it matter?
Trying to find an appropriate wine pairing? Trying to lump it into a healthy vs unhealthy category? Trying to stick to a specific “white/red meat only” diet?
Regardless what it’s classified as, it looks so good and I’m jealous.

Isn’t meat & poultry two different types?
