no bacon in this
hand rub them with Tony Chachere's, put it the fridge for an hour or two
combine and melt in a saucepan equal portions of
lemon juice
butter
Zatarain's creole mustard
take quail out of fridge...rub again
dip in sauce then grill and baste while grilling

There we go... thanks birddog... I will definitely do that with some of them. I think he is bringing a ton of them so I may do several batches and try a bunch of different methods. As usualy, I will report back with pics.Columbia, SC --- LBGE 2011 -- MINI BGE 2013

Never cooked them on an Egg - but have alot inside the house. Would think they might dry out pretty fast - but sounds awesome. Let us know how they turn out.

I spatchcock them and do them raised direct at high heat. I cook them to about 145* for domestic quail. I heard somewhere that that was the safe temp.

As long as you don't overcook and/or dry them out you can't go wrong with quail. Along with pheasant it is one of my absolute favorite things to eat.

As in keel bone? Hell on a chicken, I never even pull it out. I just push down and crack the bones after i remove the back bone to make sure it lays flat. I have never had good luck removing the keel bone. Guess I need to polish my skills with the knife.
Hell we will probably be a few beers in by the time the quail get cooked Saturday so no clue what will come of those
