This does not remove the spur but only the hard outer casing, really n0o need for the hot potato which can burn you and the rooster (or hen, yes some hens have spurs, too). I just use a pliers and getly grsp the spur casing and twist and pull at the same time. The casing comes off and the soft inner spur is left, sometimes there is a little blood but it only seeps for a few seconds and is fine.
There is a video on You Tube of a poultry judge showing how to do this
