Cider Brined and Smoked Game Hens
Recipes
This brine technique works equally well with chicken or turkey. Brining is sort of a magical process that adds both flavor and moistness to the meat. Be sure to use the indirect heat method described below and monitor both temperature of the barbecue and the birds with a thermometer.
The objective is to cook the birds slowly enough so that they can pick up a rich smoky flavor. Enjoy a glass of Sonoma-Cutrer Owsley Pinot Noir while you are waiting for the birds to cook.
