Evening folks...was a super nice day here in SE AK...but had to work...on the way home I stopped at the store and found some stuffed and seasoned game hens! Hey why not!! Got home, fired up the grill and got things going!! Indirect with some taters! Hens are stuffed with a apple almond stuffing...I added some poultry seasoning and tossed them on with a bunch of hickory!

Went inside and got some corn ready...one of my several methods for corn...foiled with butter, S&P and garlic!

Take care and thanks for looking!
 
Very nice Morgan... Plated pic looks delicious. I haven't had those in a while. I remember my uncles would by them by the box and just grill them have a few drinks and gamble.
 
How is it possible that you're in Alaska and you have WAYYYY less snow in your yard than I do???

I was thinking the same thing! Although most of our snow melted in the last couple days

Anyways....awesome meal Morgan! Love the colour on those hens
 
Super lookin' Grillin' Morgan!! Haven't had Cornish Hens in ages!
Beautiful colour!
You likin' that 3rd Shift, huh...? Where are you getting cobbed corn from?
Gerti's lookin' so good!!

Jim...I do like the 3rd Shift...good stuff...one of our local stores had the corn...I'm sure it was once frozen..not bad..little Pre-taste of summer! The birds were good!

Thanks everyone ...was a good cook! I love smokey chicken!
 
Terrific looking little birdies Morgan!
Not sure if I'll show Jo the pic of Gerti though, she's working on me for another pup, thanks to you and Gerti.:p
