Broiled Chickens

After having washed the chickens, split down the back bone and steam them for one hour. After having done this, place them on a gridiron over a hot bed of coals, when nicely browned put them on a warm platter with plenty of butter, pepper and salt. In broiling this way they cook more evenly and are better than to broil without steaming. Garnish chickens with parsley or hard boiled eggs, sliced around the platter.
