Game Hens on the Q

[Darryl P]

Second, cook under my belt on a Q220
Made Cornish Game Hens with a nice pepper rub and veggies in the foil pack. Yummy

Looks good, how long did you cook them. Did you cook with lid up or down?

I love those little chickens.
Did you brine?

Looks great Daryl! I was looking for ideas for tonight and I think you helped me. Thanks!

All this is how I cooked them
took about 30-35 minutes on the grill (cover down)

Cooking process:
-1) spatchcocked 2 birds
-2) Applied my poultry rub maybe a tablespoon or 2 between the birds
Rub Blend:
4 Tbls Kosher Salt
2 Tbls Paprika
2 Tsp Black Pepper
1/2 Tsp White Pepper
1/8 tsp Cayenne Pepper
1 Tsp Garlic Powder
1 Tsp Thyme
1 Tsp Corriander

-3) preheated Q to 400
-4) placed bone side down for 10-15 minutes (i lost tract of time)
-5) Flipped and cooked Breast site up 10-15minutes(i lost tract of time)
-6) Flipped bone side down for 5 minutes

They were a tad dry let on grill for 5 minutes too long
