ingredients
1 package (6 ounce size) stuffing mix
4 Cornish hens
salt and pepper, to taste
Sauce
1 jar (10 ounce size) red currant jelly
1/2 cup golden raisins
1/4 cup butter or margarine
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1/4 teaspoon allspice
directions
Mix stuffing according to package directions and stuff hens. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place trivet in slow cooker.
In a 3-1/2 quart crock pot, place hens on end, neck end down.
In saucepan combine jelly, raisins, butter, lemon juice and allspice. Cook on low heat, stirring, until blended. Brush some of the sauce on hens in the pot. Brush hens once during cooking, if possible.
Cover slow cooker and cook on low for 5-7 hours. Spoon remaining sauce over hens at serving time.
NOTE: If you don't have a trivet, you can crumple up aluminum foil and place that in the bottom - it's just so the birds don't rest in the liquids while cooking.

crock pot notes
Crock pots/slow cookers all heat differently. There is no standard among manufacturers. Cooking times are suggested guidelines based on our testing. Please adjust cooking times and temps to work with your brand and model of slow cooker.nutrition data

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
