Is it supposed to make sizzling noises the whole time?


Pardon me while I shut off the smoke alarm....

Sizzle? Maybe. Set off the smoke alarm? No. Did you put oil on it? That would cause it to sizzle. Or, maybe it's up too high in the oven. I would put it on a rack in the lower third.


Let me know how it turns out.

I can't roast a chicken at high heat without setting off the smoke alarm.

This turned out to be one beautiful bird.


The smell has driven the cat and me insane.


George and the kids decimated it.


I rubbed it with "Galena Street Poultry Rub" from Penzey's spices and stuffed it with some rosemary.

WHen I roast my chicken (ROFLMAO) I put it on one of those racks that has the pan underneath so the juices run down into the bottom pan and yes, sometimes it does sizzle.


I am a bit late coming in on this post - but no, I've never SMOKED a chicken in that way (OMG I'm drying) that I needed to shut off the smoke alarms.


How did the chicken, um, come out?

Ah, yes, see no smoke for me b/c I roast at 350 20 minutes per pound - lower temp.


However, I cannot let this go by:


I am going to be roasting birds more often.

DYK I'm starting every post off with DYK?


DYK that's not good?


Teresa...it's probably best that you didn't have to eat that chicken after all that talk about chicken roasting.
