I shish kabob the little suckers. Makes it easier to flip em on the grill.

Prep: Lemon pepper, italian dressing

Wrap with Bacon, bell peppers, and onion, on Shishkabob like this:

He's got it right. Soak in the Italian dressing over night. Add a few Jalapenos in place of some bell pepper and spice it up. Add a wedge of pineapple for a sweeter taste. Just don't overcook it. Microwave the bacon first. If you grill until bacon is done without microwaving, quail will be dry. Filet the breast and it will cook better.
