Answer
A Yorkshire pot is a dish consisting of several different types of birds, cooked one inside another, with stuffing in between. The six-bird version has a quail inside a partridge, inside a pheasant, inside a chicken, inside a duck, inside a goose. The dish can be made with fewer birds (eg pheasant inside a chicken inside a duck).
One butcher who specialises in making Yorkshire pot is Mr Derek Fox, of Malton, Yorkshire.
This information comes from an article by chef James Martin in The Independent newspaper, on Saturday 1st December 2007, and a TV programme broadcast on 10th December, in which James Martin showed the dish being prepared.
