Top video that matey, will deffo give that a try, looks easier than cutting the breasts out!

I think this is brilliant after watching all the experts messing about with plucking etc.

Don't know if I'm being thick but why do the wings have to come off?

Is 'crowning' the official term? I was taught this by a bushcraft/survival company called 'woodsmoke' on one of their courses and they called it the "Rip and Flip" method!

 

Fantastic for quick and easy preparation!

It’s an 11 year old thread so the link is probably no longer valid.

Simple job, have not watched the video but I use a pair of pruning sheers to cut the wing joints.  I mostly braise mine, or casserole ..is there any difference I don't know, but in a casserole with vegetables/potatos and a goodly sprinkle of Worcester sauce, salt pepper and I have some special Cajun mix I have sent over from the USA. Gooked till the meat falls off the bone, delicious.  The breast are also brilliant curried. I also hot smoke them, then sliced paper thin with a mixed salad they make a superb starter.

Seem to remember a few year ago another video on PW showing a lad doing it in one go with a spike of some kind fixed to the wall, anyone else remember.?
