A Naughty Way to Roast a Chicken (Looks intriguing)
- Thread starter sylvia
- Start date
I've t ried so many of those gadgets and it really is just that, a gadget
results were less than stellar. It was lots of fun to play with, however I've found that I really like taking a whole chicken, patting the skin dry and placing on a plate, putting into the refer, uncovered for two days to let the skin dry out. Then use butter or evoo, herbs, salt and pepper to coat the skin all over. Inside the bird, put sprigs of fresh herbs, lemon etc. Then roast. This is the best whole roasted chicken I have made yet. The drying process produces such a great color. Here is a link to my recipe for the chicken that turns out so well.

All
of Sur la Table that I signed up for when I ventured into the store in Sarasota that was very close to where I used to work.
In the catalog, I found this nifty dual-purpose vertical roaster/wok gizmo that looks very practical for BBQ'ing. The cone is detachable to use as a wok. I want to buy this one day.

Dawn, I remember my Mom throwing bacon grease in the iron skillet
with onions and garlic right about 5:30 -- when my Dad walked in the door he thought she had been cooking all day!!

Very good question Ann and thanks for asking. Here's a better description after
I googled and found it at another source where I used to shop in Ardmore, PA (sniffing here for the memories of Suburban Square in Ardmore, PA).
Ahem, price looks good too.

Thanks for telling me Ang. I didn't even think of using it in an oven. I imagine
that potatoes and sliced onions would get a lot of pan drippings directly underneath.
I so have to get one!

I have a vertical chicken roaster. Mine works really great.
The phallic part lifts off and is inserted into the chicken. The bottom part of roasting pan has a center cup that the the insert fits over. I usually put a little lemon juice and chicken stock or broth in there. I put more chicken broth in the outer ring. along with some halved or quartered (depends on the size) red or Yukon Gold potatoes. The chicken is prepared the same as I would for roasting on a regular rack.
