Great Tips on Choosing Rotisserie Chicken
Sure, it's a rundown of the best rotisserie bird joints in Los Angeles, but everyone can benefit from the tips this article lays out on what to look for in a spinning chicken.
Golden Chicken Rule No. 3: Go at peak hours. Be there when the place is operating at full tilt even if you are not planning to eat your chicken right then. Don't go at 3 in the afternoon to find two lonely birds circling the chicken Ferris wheel probably since 11 a.m.
You won't catch me clucking about this advice.

My local D'Agostinos makes excellent rotisserie chicken - very juicy and tasty. I agree, you have to go when it's peak shopping times - they'll have every row of the oven filled up with birds and they can't cook it fast enough for the customers waiting on line at the deli counter to snap them up as soon as the timer goes off and the ladies take them off the rods and pack them in the containers. I notice during non-peak hours there might be just 2 or 3 dried looking birds spinning around. They make really good Italian and Spanish spiced ones also. And with my Dag points I can get a whole cooked chicken that will last at least two meals for less than 5 bucks!

I am a Costco chix fan. I make chicken salad, quesadillas, pasta salad with chicken, and sesame chicken salad wraps. It is all good and those chickens are very good. Price went up recently to 5.99 (up a dollar) but they still are good and cheap for chix.
