Here's my non-traditional carving method. It can be done with a very sharp knife or an electric;
Remove the legs and wings and set them aside.
Cut each breast in its entirety off the bird. Try to stay as close to the bone as possible.
Place each breast on the platter side by side. Slice the breasts cutting down toward the platter (against the grain). Make sure to keep them in the original shape.
Place the wings and legs back on the platter in their correct position to make it look like the original bird.
Remove the rest of the dark meat from the carcass and place it around the bird or on a separate platter.
That's it!
