    **RECIPE, SERVES 8**
    2 4 lb (2 kg) whole chickens
    3-4 lb (1.5-2 kg) baking potatoes
    1 lemon
    salt
    garlic powder
    paprika
    oil
    chicken stock
    stuff for a side salad
    Place a rack over a sheet pan and put the chickens on top. Heavily coat the chickens with salt, garlic powder and paprika on all sides. Don't worry if a lot of seasoning falls onto the pan underneath. Move the whole rack assembly to the refrigerator and leave the chickens in there, uncovered, for 24-48 hours.
    Peel the potatoes and cut them into 1.5 inch (4 cm) slices.
    Prepare the oven by positioning one rack on the very top, and one on the very bottom. If you have a third rack, take it out. Heat the oven to 425 F / 220 C, ideally on a convection setting. NOTE: This temp is just a starting place. You may need to turn the heat up or down as you roast, depending on how the skin is looking.
    Using butcher's twine, tie the chicken's legs together and send a supporting loop down around the length of the chicken. Loop large metal S-hooks through their legs (you can bend them out of a coat hanger). Put an oven-safe probe thermometer into the deepest part of the breast, and lightly oil the chickens on all sides. NOTE: Oiling is optional. I actually can't decide which way I like it best. Oil makes for darker skin, but no oil makes for crispier skin, in my experience.
    Take the chickens off the rack, and get rid of the rack while retaining the sheet pan underneath. Put the potatoes onto the sheet pan, making sure they're evenly distributed in one layer. Put the rack of potatoes on the bottom oven rack, and hang the chickens with the S-hooks to the top rack. Pour enough chicken stock into the sheet pan to come 1/4 of the way up the potatoes.
    Roast until the skin is brown and the internal temperature is 165 F / 74 C, about an hour. You may need to increase the heat to make sure the skin is brown. Every 15 minutes, move the rack slightly so that all the potatoes get some time directly under the dripping chickens.
    When the chickens are done, use an oven mitt to unhook them. Rest them on a clean cooling rack. Take the potatoes out, flip them, then put them back in the oven on the top rack and roast until the tops are starting to go crispy. You might want to turn on the broiler (grill), but if you do, watch them like a hawk.
    When done, the potatoes may need some additional salt. Put them on a plate with some carved chicken and a side salad, and eat. Duh.

    Q: Is it unsafe to use non-food-grade metal for the S-hook?
    A: I'm not sure. The hook doesn't actually touch any part of the chicken you're going to eat, so I'm not that worried about it. Although, I suppose it's possible that you could have some wire that's coated in something that might melt down onto the chicken. Certainly something to think about.
    Q: Do you really have to dry cure the chicken?
    A: Nah, and I'm honestly not sure if I prefer it. I tend to think dry-curing or dry-brining or whatever is overrated. But it definitely gives you a crispier skin. If you want really crispy skin, there's lots of other things you could try too. I'm sure I'll get to that in a future video, but basically you want to do what the peking duck chefs do.
    Q: Do you really have to oil the chicken?
    A: No. I honestly can't decide which way I like best. The oil gets you a browner skin. No oil gets you crispier skin. At least, in my experiments that's what happened.
    Q: Are those really the chicken's knees?
    A: No, I suppose they're technically the chicken's ankles. What looks like the chicken's lower leg is actually its foot, because it walks on its toes.
    Q: Does the lemon inside the chicken actually do anything?
    A: It definitely gets you a subtle lemon flavor in the breast meat, but it's not a huge deal and you could skip it.
    Q: Shouldn't you season the inside of the chicken?
    A: I don't think that really does anything. There's so much connective tissue and bone between the cavity and the meat, I don't think the salt could really penetrate though that. When I've done it, I've noticed no difference. But maybe you might? The lemon is a different matter, because it creates aromas that actually go through the chicken during cooking.
    Q: Does the chicken pick up weird smells in the fridge?
    A: Never that I've noticed. It just doesn't have that much fat (which is what absorbs smells) and its own flavor is very strong.
    Q: Couldn't you make gravy in the pan that had the potatoes in it?
    A: Yeah, there's probably some good flavor left in that pan, and the bits of potato left in it would thicken the gravy for you. But, by the time you got the gravy done, the potatoes wouldn't be crispy anymore, and they don't reheat well. Maybe if you could make the gravy super fast it'd work.
    Q: What do you mean I'll have to experiment with my oven temperature?
    A: You want a temperature that's going to get you brown-but-not-burned skin by the time the interior meat is cooked, and I just think that depends on so many factors. If you're using convection, some convection settings actually lie to you about the temperature - they reduce the temperature you enter by like 30 degrees F to compensate for the fact that convection is more efficient at transferring heat. It depends on how well-ventilated your oven is - the steam from the potatoes could slow the cooking of the skin, etc. It's all just really complicated. I usually start these at 425 F, but a few times I upped the heat toward the end because the skin wasn't getting as brown as I wanted.
    Q: Is it safe to keep the raw chicken uncovered in the fridge?
    A: I can't find any research literature on the subject, but dry-brining raw poultry in the fridge is a very common practice, and I'm not concerned about it. Just make sure that the bird is in a tray that will catch the drippings, and give it enough space in the fridge so that you don't accidentally touch any food to it. Fridge temperatures inhibit microbial activity. Yes some food pathogens can go airborne, but the experts I've talked to have said that's a risk when you do something to aeresolize the bugs - like splashing a lot of water on the chicken to wash it off. The dry-curing process does the things I said in the video - it dries out the skin (which will make it crispier), and it seasons the interior of the meat. You could absolutely skip it if you don't want to do it, but this is a very common practice, and I can't find any documented case of someone getting sick from it.

    Important step missing from the video: make sure your oven is large enough to hang your bird in.
    Mine was too small to hang it, but I threw a cooling rack over the pan and left the chicken on that. The underside wasn't too crispy but it still cooked through and tasted great.
    I also put a bit of leftover duck fat on top of the potatoes. Super tasty.

      There are metal stands to shove into your chickens so they will stand on a baking sheet or in a form (not sure if they would stand on a rack). I know that they exist, I once used a high olive jar (a high tube clear glass labels removed of course, empty and washed as "stand" because I did not want to buy the thingies. And the chicken stood in a form that rested on a rack (so better circulation of air and heat than with a baking sheet). If you need to roas two chickens - ventilation may become more of an issue so they will cook evenly.

    • @xyzsame4081
      @xyzsame4081 Před 3 lety +5

      metal or ceramic "chicken roast stand" price between 10 and 25 USD - but a olive jar that is high and has a small diameter (so the form of a tube) will also work (advantage: one could give fluid into the jar - like the beer can method. Which I do not like, who knwows what the beer cans give off - and how do you fit a chicken over that diameter ?)
      I tested the olive jar once or twice, it worked.

    Ok Adam, this was dinner tonight, after watching your video at least 5 times. This is what I have learned
    1. My oven is too small. This is an excuse to get that convection oven I always wanted.
    2. I agree with your feedback, the lemon isnt a must. I'm not sure I even noticed it. But I may miss it next time?
    3. I need cooling/baking racks. The dry aging made the chicken sooo good.
    4. I think this would great with more than potatoes, as I used sweet potatoes. Next time, I will add carrots too.
    5. My homemade S hook worked this time, but I want a better one for next time.
    6. Make 2 next time, as my organic birds were a tease.
    Great recipe Adam and thank you for sharing!

The only suggestion I have is to maybe squeeze some of the roasted lemon over the chicken for added flavor. Or maybe just grill off half of one. Great video.
