I = Imu. In Hawaii, an underground pit lined with hot rocks. Kalua pig, a whole hog, is cooked in an imu. It is wrapped in leaves and/or wet cloth, laid on the rocks, and buried by covering the pit with dirt or sand. And, yes, I Googled it.

When I was a kid, the local Rotary Club held a huge pit barbecue every year for many years on the farm of a large local cattle rancher. The meat was amazing and people came from miles around to get in line! I enjoyed it then, but don't eat it now.

I love to eat quails.In my french country it's not an unusual speciality, but not gtilled, rather cooked in what we call a "sauteuse" or "cocotte", the whole bird sometimes filled with sausage meat, mushrooms, minced meat, foie gras, grapes and so on. Yummy!
