I suspect the leaves are wet and the game hen is actually being steamed, at least at first. Perhaps it only browns on the outside when the leaves have charred and can no longer protect it.
I have a kiln that heats to 2000 degrees and could try this with hot rocks, but I'm not going to for fear of harming the kiln.
