Honey Game Hens

    I followed this recipe to the "T" as far as the ingredients are concerned. Well.....I think that maybe used an extra clove of garlic because I really LOVE garlic. I also cooked it a little longer. And at about 15 minutes until it was finished I turned the stove up a bit to get a good browning on the top. The key to this recipe is to baste and flip every couple of hours while marinating in the refrigerator overnight. Basting it while it's cooking is important because it helps to keep the hens moist while cooking. These hens are scrumpdilliumptious:-) So good I had to make up a word:-)
