Add the butter to a small pan over medium-high heat. Add the leeks and black pepper to the pan and cook for 3 - 4 minutes.
Add the cracker crumbs to a medium sized mixing bowl. Add the leeks, Roasted Chicken Base, grapes and Brie cheese. Toss to combine.
Divide the stuffing evenly and fill the cavity of each Cornish hen.
Place the Cornish hens onto a grill-proof rimmed pan. Place the pan directly onto the EGG.
