Cook the Book: 'Roast Chicken and Other Stories'

After living near Moorefield, WV, where there is a chicken factory, I'm not the biggest fan of chicken. The whole town smelled of slaughtered chicken. However, when I want to get my carnivore on, I love beer can grilled chicken, Dan's roasted chicken (redneckmuppet.blogspot.com), or a great baked chicken cassarole.

Growing up I cooked with my mom, dad, and grandmothers. Between all of them I learned all sorts of recipes and tastes. The college years was just trial and error as are my 30s.

As an English teacher, I would have to agree with evilchefmom. It is always wise to give credit where credit is due, even if one is tweaking with the ingredients.

My sis , I and our kids went through a drive through zoo down in gentry ark years ago. They had gobs of baby chicks crated up to feed to the animals and snakes. The guy that worked there mentioned they had to many chicks and we could take some.The kids wanted to save the chicks from being ate so we ended up taking home a crate of them. Big Mistake. Baby chicks make a whole top of noise in a small car along with 2 kids.when we got home we had no where to put them so a neighbor took them.Talk about a headache.lol

Former latchkey child here. I was attempting to be the responsible one and start dinner with Shake and Bake Chicken in the oven. I must have set the temperature wrong, because it took an eternity to cook it thoroughly. What can I say, I was but a lad!

A few years ago my husband bought me one of those "set it and forget it" rotisseries for Christmas. What I didn't realize was it the wings or legs slipped out of the cooking twine, they could keep the rotisserie from turning and you'd be sorry you 'forgot it' as you'd have half a burned chicken and half a raw chicken! I think I'll stick to good old fashioned oven roasting from now on!

When I roast a chicken I always put lots of garlic in the cavity, it gives it a great taste.

Why did the chicken cross the road? To get into my oven. It's a true story. I checked my oven. There's a roasted chicken in there that would make Julia Child proud.

Once upon a time there was a woman that really liked chicken, but she wasn't very good at cooking it. So she tried a lot of different recipes, but she just never was sure it was cooked completely. Then one day she met a wonderful man. He was a superb cook and would make her chicken any way she wanted it whenever she wanted it. They lived happily ever after.
