Processing Quail Pictures- WARNING Graphic!

Yes - spatchcocking is the correct term and that's how we did the last batch on the grill:

Turned out AWESOME! We also marinaded them first; DBF did all the work so I don't know the details. He has also done chickens this way on the smoker.

I'm kind of worrying about overcooking them and have them all stringy...about how long do they take to cook on the grill or in the oven?

 

[LilRalphieRoosmama]

I honestly don't know. I just asked DBF and he said 4-5 minutes per side but I don't remember him turning them. I know it doesn't take long. 1/2 hour maybe at the most. Be sure to brine them first.
