Spatchcock is not a bird, it's a method. Similar to butterflying, it's a particular way of flattening any fowl in preparation for laying the entire bird flat on a grill. To spatchcock any bird, simply remove the backbone and sternum, then fold the wings in on themselves, close to the carcass. Lay flat on the grill, turning once until done, then present your guests with your spatchcocked bird.

Quail is a small gamebird of the pheasant family, whereas spatchcock typically refers to baby chicken. Spatchcock is also a cooking term referring to a method of preparation for all fowl/gamebirds: you remove the backbone and sternum from the carcass by cutting along the spine, and then flatten the bird out. The bird is then either grilled, baked or spit-roasted

What is Spatchcock chicken?

A spatchcock chicken can be any age, but it should not be too young as it will not have developed good breast meat. Also, if it is too old, say more than six months, the meat may be tough and taste very gamey. Spatchcocking is not related to age, but is merely a method of cooking chicken. It is done by cutting the chicken open along the backbone so that the chicken can be flattened out for cooking.

Are quail breasts white meat?

Quail breasts are considered more of a combination of white meat and dark meat. Dark meat refers to the areas on a bird that get the most movement/exercise, such as the wings and legs. That is because with so much movement, the blood flow is heavier in these areas, and they typically have more fat. White meat refers to the areas used less, especially in flight, which is the breast area. However, because Quail are so much smaller, their breast muscles get more of a workout, thereby increasing the blood flow, but not as much as the legs and wings. Which is why they are considered a combination (the only bird listed as a combination).
