Grilling Tips - How to Spatchcock a Turkey or Chicken

Pitmaster Jason - (IG @meat.therapy) took some time to showcase his spatchcock skills and give us a little spatchcock tutorial!  Spatchcocking is a great technique to have in your arsenal as it allows for more even, and faster cooking of your chosen protein. This method sounds harder than it really is, and to be honest, Pitmaster Jason actually makes it look easy.

• Start with cutting out the spine with a good pair of kitchen shears

• Make a slice right down the middle of the bird and accros the membrane of the breast bone.

• Separate the membrane from the breast bone and remove the bone and cartilage.

• Flip over and tuck the wings in.

• Your bird is ready to be seasoned and cooked up to greatness!
