“I used a 4 lb chicken. It was already spatchcocked so I got to skip that step! Unfortunately due to the stay-at-home order I was out of potatoes. I was also out of lemons. I had plenty of garlic! So this is what I did, I opened up about eight cloves of garlic ” — a cook, 5★
“It was delicious!! But was out of rosemary so I used thyme and also out of big potatoes so I used Yukon cut up small and also added carrots to the mix and changed the temp to 275 and since mine was a 5 pounder I let it cook for 4 hours while cleaning my house ” — a cook, 5★
