2:
Brush hens with sauce and place skin side up on grill over hot coals. Grill about 20-30 minutes, turning frequently and brushing occasionally with sauce. Check for doneness by piercing the thickest part of the drumstick. When juices are clear and no pink shows, hens are done. Heat remaining sauce and serve with hens.
