Could you just pot roast? They may not know if it's kept whole

Cook them in a crust? I've a vague memory of reading about rabbits and hedgehogs being wrapped a crust of scone mix or maybe suet crust to bake in the embers of a fire outdoors. Presumably it would also work for birds.

Pot roast? What exactly is this?

I know that probably sounds weird, but I dont do a lot of cooking.

I do a lot of killing, gutting etc, but John does the cooking, and it has to be simple.

In a crust wont happen - bit complicated and the kids will poke it and ask 'whats that'? Laughing

In a chicken brick/dutch oven type affair?

pot roast...
roast them in a pot...
bed of root veg on the bottom of a casserole or slow cooker, whole bird on top of them, some herbs and a splash of liquid, wine, stock, water, beer..
tifht fitting lid and a relativly slow oven, baste as and when you remwmber and rest in the pot out of the oven for a bit before carving.

Slow cooker, best of both. Cool

slow cooker or haybox works well with game birds

for fancy finish covered with bacon under a grill until crisped before resting the bird
