I want to try Cornish game hens, who has done them?  I'm thinking less time then say chicken right?  Whole or spatchcock them?   I plan on doing the "snake" method with a foil pan with water in it and apple and maybe a chunk of hickory or pecan?

Any and all suggestions are welcome! Thanks
Wanted: 18" Platinum any color will work
This is my Kettle there are many like it but this one is mine......

I do them all the time. What I do is spatch them and then cut the in half and lay them skin up. I also oil and rube them down because they dry up easily. Serve with wild riice and veggies and your in for a treat!

I like them rotisseried. I put four or five on a spit and let them go to 160, about 40 minuets or so. Very tasty!

Here is a recipe for the roti as Chad suggested. Never tried, but from my Big Boy 1950's recipe book

I know - these old books have some good tips, and the old pics are pretty cool too.
