3/4 cup red raspberries
1 cups vinegar
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1 teaspoons garlic clove crushed
2 tablespoons mint chopped
1/2 cups olive oil
4 (1 pound) rock Cornish game hens

In a bowl combine red raspberries, vinegar, lemon juice, garlic clove, mint, and olive oil. Split Cornish hens down the middle to flatten and arrange in a 13 x 9-inch shallow dish. Pour the marinade on top and let stand for 4 hours.

Grill, skin side down, for 10 minutes over hot coals. Turn and continue cooking for 20 to 25 minutes, basting frequently with the marinade.
