BBQ Spatchcock Grouse

Serves: 2 (1 grouse per person)
Difficulty: Easy
Preparation time: 10 mins (overnight)
Cooking Time: 10 mins

Bored of the same old roast grouse? Well why not try something new and exciting - this recipe will completely change your views on grouse!

  • Maple syrup
  • Dijon mustard
  • Thyme
  • Salt
  • Pepper

Cut out the bird's backbone, and using the palms of your hand squash flat. Make up the marinade as you go along, but I would highly recommend trying out maple syrup (worked a treat) and potentially some chilli. Leave in the fridge overnight, or as long as possible.

Get the BBQ up to full power, and cook for five minutes on both sides. As always leave to rest and enjoy the tastiest grouse ever.
