Spatchcock is a new word to me, but it’s been around for a long time. Research indicates it originated in Ireland in the 18 th century and is a variation on the phrase “dispatching a cock.” The cock is a bird. In culinary terms, spatchcock simply means to split a bird open and lay it flat for cooking. It’s supposed to make it cook quick and even. Have you ever tried to split a turkey in half ? It ain’t easy. I watched my wife and a 350-pound man wrestle with a turkey until they finally succeeded in removing the big bid’s spine by carving, sawing, pulling and sweating. They spent nearly an hour working with the slick and unruly hunk of poultry.
