SMOKED CORNISH GAME HENS - HOW TO COOK MEAT

My introduction to smoked foods began the same way it did with most everyone else: bacon. But once I began to experiment with the grill and smoking meat myself, it grew to obsession. With a grill, it is difficult to cold-smoke meat. At least without some major modifications. So I've focused on hot smoking, which means that the food cooks as it smokes. In the case of these Cornish game hens and other poultry, you can help keep the meat moist by brining it in salt water for 8-10 hours before cooking. Pork is also sometimes brined before it is smoked, but it doesn't have to be.
