Grilled Orange Spiced Dove
Makes: 4 Servings
8 whole dove
2 cups orange juice
1 tablespoon honey
½ cup olive oil
1 tbsp. smoked paprika
2 minced garlic cloves
2 tbsp. chopped fresh thyme leaves
Salt and Pepper
Directions:
In a shallow dish, whisk the orange juice, honey, olive oil, garlic, thyme and smoked paprika.
Divide the marinade between two large zipper-top bags and put four doves in each bag. Allow doves to marinate for 1 hour.
Once marinated, they’re ready to cook. Preheat gas grill on medium-high.
Remove doves from the marinade and sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste. Transfer remaining marinade in to a small bowl.
Place the doves, breast-side up over direct heat and grill. Baste periodically with remaining marinade. Turn doves frequently moving them around to prevent charring, for about 6 minutes. Flip the doves and cook for another 5-6 minutes on the other side. Cook, just until the drumstick moves easily. Don’t overcook them, the dove should be just cooked through. Enjoy!

Sarah Parvin and her father have spent years chasing something most pond managers never attempt: growing the world's largest coppernose bluegill on their five-acre North Alabama pond. What started as a happy accident after a devastating 2018 fish kill became their life's work. Then, in July, a second kill wiped out everything they'd built. Rather than accept defeat they both decided to stare defeat in the face and come roaring back anyway. Learn how Sarah manages feeding schedules, water quality, and habitat to grow trophy fish — and why reliability matters when every growing day counts.
