Anyone seen or done this?

I know how to spatchcock a chicken and even split them in half, but never seen it done this way.


The chicken is opened in a half the long way and the top (breast) is spilt from the bottom except around the neck area. It’s a popular way of splitting chicken in Argentinean BBQ evidently, and I’m not sure what the advantage of doing this way. If any one had it or tried it, please share.
Thanks

Yep, I did that once before. I didn't really see any advantages though...although it was fun getting the reaction from my wife. She says that I am "Messed Up In The Head"... I don't know what she is talking about.

I'm guessing it's more of a presentation thing, although I guess you could keep the breasts further away from the coals with a 2-3 zone setup, which would keep them from drying out.

I've done this a few times. Not a lot of advantage to the method except that it looks a lot more tidy - which is something.
