I made some at camp opening day of dove season. I didn't use the tooth picks though, I placed them into a wire fish grilling basket and grilled them in it. That holds them together as well as toothpicks and you can turn the whole batch over at the same time.
I also grilled our dove breast in a like manner. I debone the breast, wrap it in bacon with a jalepeno that has a stick of cheeder cheese inserted into it.
We argued about which was best when we weren't busy stuffing our faces.
