Buying Tips

Check the “Sell By” date on the package. This date indicates the last day the partridge should be offered for sale. Meat and poultry should be prepared as soon as possible after the date of purchase, and used beyond the Sell By date only occasionally, if at all. Fresh partridge should have no detectable odor; the flesh should feel firm, and the surface should not feel slick.

Varieties

Young partridge weigh 1 to 1 1/2 pounds (454 to 675 grams); older birds weigh between 2 1/2 and 3 pounds (1,125 to 1,350 grams). Partridge is usually commercially available frozen.
