Actually ate some in Tx way back in the day. Uncle had land around Corpus Christy.
The hired hand shot a couple and cooked them by burying them in a pit wrapped in foil with veggie's. Dug them out and did the taste test.
I was pretty young at the time, so my culinary pallet was not educated, but I remember all the adults saying it tasted like pork. Some white meat, and some a little darker.
Sure wouldn't do that now, as they are known TB carriers.
