Do you enjoy eating Cornish Game hens?

These are not game birds, and they can be either male or female in the USA!

Almost every Thanksgiving.

I live alone, so it doesn't make sense for me to buy a turkey when most of it will go to waste. When the grocery stores are pushing turkeys, I search for the Cornish hens. They are usually marked down, so I can get them for a few dollars each. I buy four to six (whatever will fit in my freezer).

I have a small, slow cooker that is the perfect size for one hen. I stuff it, add some veggies like potatoes and carrots, and let it cook all day. By evening, the meat just falls off the bone. So yummy!
