a forked stick so you can keep rolling it.
I usually slice the breasts into strips and deep fry them like a chicken nugget.
a little mayo and sour cream, to mustard, honey, and hot sauce to dip them in.
I'm in charge of thanksgiving this year and have just enough grouse put up for everyone coming to get a whole one.
there is gonna be a lot of meat and not too much salad this year.

William Parks published the first "cookery book" printed in America in 1742,Williamsburg VA.
I know this because of a recent Bday.... youngins got me a nice little stack of books.There was a reprint of the above in the lot.Already learned a cpl more tricks.And a few historical tid-bits.... about politeness and hospitality.Seems Va took those pretty serious in the 18th century?Even had a few laws concerning such,mostly in charitable ways.I've always been the cook here,wifey can't cook a pop tart?I'm doin a cpl turkeys and a Va,Smithfield ham.Grouse would be stupid cool!We have'm here,just the mnts are so dang steep,they have the advantage.

I think you'd go to jail in most places for hunting them the way we do here.
I have done the dog and walk thing a bunch of times, but seem to do a whole lot better ridin up on the 4 wheeler or pickup truck and just head shooting them with whatever I take that day.
usually I take a shotgun and go kick them up and shoot them.
but I'm just as likely to take the model 94 or 92 or a handgun, or even the pellet rifle, and catch them in the undergrowth looking around.

30 years ago we could catch ruffed grouse in the logging roads on a frosty morning, or a family group clucking on the ground in deer season. No more. They flush so far out you most times don't get a glimpse. They are almost ungettable, you can't shoot what you can't see in the ADK's.. I think it is since the coyotes have moved in for good, but in any event you got to work for them now. I used to kill 20-30 just potting around but now I better buy chicken on sale.
Gary,I shot a cpl 30 years ago and it was broadheads.We'd see them while Deer hunting.
Nuthin much better than fresh chicken Chris.Speakin of historic cookery books,the Lee family has a well recognized version.Like the Parks above,these are glimpses into the 18th century,sorta literally through the "back door".Which is durn neat considering.Pathological fallacy is rampant in historical preservation work.PHD's writing "how to" manuals on architecture that don't know a hammer from a handsaw?
But "receipt" books don't get writ like that.All the new stuff is marketing 101,"my flaming chocolate covered pine cone is better than yours".Or... "why would anyone want to cook like your Gmother"?.You know buy the microwave,get a free cookbook?
Nope,these old cookery books are like looking in a real window.... time warp,200 years ago.We see the same thing now when sportsman discussing,Grouse on a stick... or fresh Elk steak at camp.Ain't a lot of BS with that,well the cooking that is...doh.Chickens in particular,from the dope in the Lee family receipt book has cooking times that would have health dept folks hackin up a lung over.They were but a fraction of cook times today.Think extra rare.Stupid hot fires,and cleaner genetics'?

I kind of liked him showing the misses.
hopefully he watched his own video because all of them were pretty much in the same place.
it looked like he was trying to head shoot them which is difficult with a projectile that will break through sticks and such.
I generally lower my aim point down on the neck with a single bullet.
a wooden arrow that is flexing this way and that doesn't stand a chance going through that kind of stuff.
