Doves Au Vin

Submitted by fluffernutter

"If you have a hunter in the family, you might have a freezer full of dove. This recipe is from a good cookbook I've been working with call Serving San Antonio, which is published by the Assistance League of San Antonio. I hope one of you 'zaar-sters will try it in a slow cooker at some point and write that in a review."
