A MESSAGE FROM BRENT WOLFE
"I have dedicated my life to perfecting my product. I control all aspects of my operation from raising the eggs, running the hatchery, growing the quail, processing with my CDFA licensed plant (allowing me to ship nation-wide) and delivery to the finest restaurants
in California and beyond. I’ve expanded a customer base that started with Alice Waters of Chez Panisse to include Wolfgang Puck and Thomas Keller."

COOKING METHODS
California's state bird is delicious served any way a chicken can be cooked, be it grilled, fried, roasted, or pan roasted. It can be served lightly undercooked as the meat can dry out easily.
Fantastic soaked in buttermilk and fried a la State Bird Provision's signature namesake dish.
