Absolutely.

For heads: I cleaned and then dried in the oven at 500 for about 5 minutes. Then I took fat (duck fat) and salt and pepper and coated the heads and roasted until they were starting to brown. About 15-20 minutes.
Then I put them in a pot with vegetable broth, carrot, onion, and celery and slow cooked overnight.
Ate 2 heads today. Surprisingly good! Not much meat, very tender, tongue and cheeks were great, not a fan of brain or eyes.
