I'm pretty sure I will never cook a recipe so fussy. I'm all about roasting a bird at (I think) 425 for something like 45 minutes, flip, 45 more. Or maybe it is 30. I always have to look it up. It's never done me wrong.
Aveda makes Loki try to eat my haid: [link] The face is involuntary.
Yeah, that described method is how I truss, I think. However, I'm not fussy about it, as noted by my punk rock goose, which was trussed with safety pins and a shoelace with the aglets cut off.
Scrappy, I'm so sorry about the news. But I'm glad you could be with your mom right now.
I should be eating more and surfing the web less.
That was the plan, Stan.
I always roast my chicken by temperature. I hate cutting in and having the juices run red, and I hate when it's overly dry.
Were there really people who cried the time "ten o'clock and all's well"? When would that have been, era wise? Town criers? Something military?
That was the plan, Stan.
I did eat! A chicken leg! Your master plan was...at least partially successful. I thought long and hard about a piece of bread, but I'm out of anti-nausea meds, so I'm having fizzy lemon water instead.

I've always associated it with colonial America, but I have no idea, actually.

Next, we introduce vegetables ...
I've never under or over-cooked a bird. So either I'm not very picky or I just have found my zone. Well, last time I cooked one, as I haven't done one in this house (3 years) and I'm still figuring out this oven. It's not terribly consistent.
Since I bought the meat temperature with the alarm, I stopped paying attention to the times on the recipes--I follow the temperatures for the different things they want to achieve, but always working to the same target "safe" temperatures, and the thing yells at me when it's time to take it out.
But I'm also not interested in flip(oh god I can't stop myself)ing the bird. This recipe has (ideally) two temperature triggers. I prefer those (as noted) to time.
I really want something sweet.
I'm just barely over being full of burrito. Stupid Chipotle.
