    Here is some I did a while back that turned out pretty good. Hope that it helps.

    I am actually cooking quail for the Super Bowl. Two thoughts: (1) slice each side of the breast off, wrap around a pepper slice and wrap in bacon. Dust with rub or Italian dressing and cook direct. Don't over cook. (2) wrap whole breast in bacon and cook direct.

    The first method is how I am doing this weekend. They go fast.
