To Spatchcock a bird not only seems to be a way to cut a bird but also
is done in coordination with how it is cooked, on a grill.

Sooo, you can spatchcock a bird, but spatchcocking isn't a boiled,
broiled nor baked bird for sure! he, he.

"Where Did The Word "Spatchcock" Come From?

Deary me! Mention that you are serving spatchcock chicken, and the
ladies blush, the men frown and the children giggle. However, it is a
real word that has been around since the 18th century. Numerous
dictionaries agree on its usage as a noun and as a verb.
Below we have a list of items from the web using the word, examples of
its usage in the United Kingdom and we have entries from a wide variety
of dictionaries, both online and traditional".... see link for full article,
