Dove Poppers

[redeyeddawg]

These will get your attention. Great appetizer-serves 3-4

12 - Mourning dove breast halves
6 - Jalapenos (seeded)
6 - Strips of bacon
cream cheese
tabasco

Remove breast bone and soak breast halves in Tabasco for 1 hour.

Slice jalapenos length wise in half and scoop out seeds.
Fill jalapeno halfs with cream cheese-heaping

Place 1/2 dove breast on each side of jalepeno, wrap with 1/2 slice of bacon and hold together with toothpicks.

Place on upper rack of preheated grill at 400-450.

Turn occasionally until bacon is well done and cream cheese is oozing. Let cool and enjoy.

dawg, than just sounds downright delicious. Now I wish we were allowed to shoot doves here.

You can substitute beef Yooper but it's not as good IMO. Maybe you should move?

Thats the best way to eat dove. I cooked mine up like that on sunday and they were gone in about ten minutes.

I feed the Doves that come here like pets since we have no hunting in this state for them. However, this sounds like it will work with Grouse.

we do the same but marinate in Italian dressing instead of tobasco sauce.
