I'm about to cull some extra boys right now...I like mine wrapped in bacon on the grill.

They're also good fried or in mushroom gravy.

Roasted Quail

1-2 per person.

Per 2 quail:

3 tbsp shreaded Cheese (I perfer Havarti or apple smoked gouda, hubby likes with a creamy blue cheese, both work equally well)

Finely minced apple about 1/4th inch cubes, 1/2 tsp

Almonds, slivered, 1/2 tsp

In a bowl mix your cheese, nuts, & apple stuffing. stuff into the cavity of cleaned quail.

Wrap each quail in a thin wrapping of salt pork (processing quail often rips the skin off, so the salt pork adds moistness and fat you loose without the skin.

Put the quail into a 400 degree oven for 5 minutes (to crisp up the salt pork, then drop the temp to 325 and finish another 10-15 mins, untill the thermomoter says 160.

Pull from heat, let rest say 5 mins while tossing the salad.

I wrap the quail breast with a couple pieces of salt pork or bacon and throw on the grill.....

2nd fav way is to line them all up in a baking pan, lay the bacon over the breast, put a piece of swiss cheese over them then cover everything with cream of mushroom soup and bake for 40 minutes at 375

ps. saddina, i know cream of mushroom is pretty close to gravy.... and yes you can substitute gravy for that
