Ingredients

Warm up the pellet grill per the manual for your pellet grill to 375*F.
Begin by preparing the cornish hens, pat them completely dry and use the seasoning and rub it over them evenly. Remove the giblet if needed too.
Using the seasoning, make sure that it's evenly rubbed over the hens, we use the No-Salt Added Lemon Pepper Seasoning from Mrs. Dash.
Carefully place them breast side down directly on the grates of the pellet grill or in a grill basket.
Coat the hens with grapeseed oil spray and cook at 375*F for 60+ minutes until the internal tempearture reaches at least 165*F.
If you prefer, you can carefully rotate them after 30 minutes of cook time.
Carefully remove and let rest for 10 minutes then cut and serve.
