butchering quail

[dc3085]

If youve never made home made stuffing id suggest doing it once and stuffing a few as well. A little white wine, some fresh italian herbs, and bread crumbs will make a better stuffing than you find being sold anywhere.

My ultimate preference in eating them is to braise stuffed quail but you have to have a cast iron skillet with a cast iron lid to pull it off.

This is really helpful to me. I read all the quail posts to study up because I'd like to start a small group for the main purpose of cooking them. What are some more favorite ways to prepare them? Do you find that you prepare them more as a main meal or as an appetizer/ side dish? Are they best med/rare like duck?

Stuffed with jalapeno and cream cheese wrapped in bacon and grilled i always cook all my game meats med/rare.
