RE: dove?
The way I do it is cut both wings off with kitchen sheers right next to the body as close as you can. Then using your thumbs rub the feathers off of the breast. Take your finger or thumb and slip it throughthe skin below the breast(or you can cut a slit there with a knife) and then using both thumbs take and pull the breast away from the backbone all the way to the neck. I then throw the breastin a big pan of water and clean it really good before I bag all of them, fill the bag with water and then freeze. The only thing that makes this difficult is fat, stubbyfingers and thumbs.
