Cook the Book: 'Roast Chicken and Other Stories'

Chicken Trek was my favorite book in elementary school. If you can find it (it is out of print) read it. Incredibly evocative descriptions of fried chicken, especially for a children's book.

Cook the Book: Win a Copy of 'Cook with Jamie'

Grandmother. Everyone else in the family was a finicky eater so the only way I could be adventuresome in my diet was to beg her to go through cookbooks with me. She still sends me recipes now that she's mastered the interweb.

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.

I could eat chicken every day. It would be great to have some new recipes to try!

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.
