I want your quail Recipes

I just got this recipe for smoked quail from a friend of mine...sounds good to me.

Try brining them in 4 gallons of water with 1 cup kosher salt, 1 cup brown sugar, 1 teaspoon garlic powder and 1/4 teaspoon cloves in a bucket in the frig for 24 hours before smoking. Then sprinkle with corse ground black pepper and smoke. they are pretty good that way.
 
Honey glazed quail:


Sure, still working on the kinks, but tonight was a good run...

1/2 c Honey
1/3 c Almonds or Pecans (raw if you got them)
1/4 c Panko (normal bread crumbs are ok too, unseasoned please)

1 LB chicken thighs or quail halves

put nuts in food processor and chorse chop (they shoud look like the mc donalds peanuts that go on sundaes).
toss in bread crumbs and mix.
Drizzle in honey untill you have a paste of nuts, crumbs & honey. Coat meat in paste (it's a bit like crunchy peanut butter, I use my hands for coating).
Bake 350 for 15-25 minutes untill thermomotor says 160.

Serve on spinach or greens with a raspberry vinagrette and a white wine (wilson creek almond champange would go well).
