Wrap it in bacon before you throw it on!

It's GREAT that way!

shanedoq is right. wrap them in bacon with toothpicks. it'll help keep them from drying out wich is real easy to do. i usually pull mine off when the bacon is done. ya gotta wactch em pretty close. we do pheasant and dove the same way.
