My entire life and my dad's life lunch has been where we found it...
I have killed grouse many different ways when out in the bush for a snack many times barely cooking the outside on a stick on a fire peeling a layer than cooking some more...
I am pretty healthy..I have eaten some pretty raw grouse when hungry..lol.
I like to cube grouse up as well. Add home ground flour, garlic and onion powders, fresh ground pepper, salt, and whatever other spices grab my fancy, toss with the cubes of grouse. Then I heat some olive oil in a wok on the BBQ side burner, add the grouse and stir fry until golden. Tasty tasty, and it retains some moisture.

This is is the right track, salmonella comes from the gut tract so as long as clean head shot and careful cleaning you should be good to go. Eat away. Maybe some grouse tartare in the future, just bring mixture.
as far as the guy whose buddy got sick from eating undercooked grouse, it is most likely the bird was contaminated from cleaning process or the shot, either shotgun pellet went through the gut or some other way guts got on the meat, or they dont wash hands properly after visiting the can, most common way to spread disease. Unless he specifically only ate grouse for the hours up to and after you can never know where food poisoning comes from, washing veggies can be a big one as they grow in crap
