Instructions
- Mise en Place
- Remove the neck and giblets from the chicken. Give the giblets to your pets and use the neck to make stock.
- Make the rubbing sauce.
- Mix the mayonnaise and sour cream, then add the Frank's Powder. Taste it; if it's too spicy for you, omit the cayenne. Add the remaining ingredients, taste again for seasoning, and adjust it to your liking.
- Mix the milk and Outrage in a small bowl and set it aside.
- To protect your hands, please wear gloves, then generously rub the chicken's breast, wings, thighs, legs, back, and some in the cavity.
- Using a marinade injector, pull some of the milk mixture into the injector chamber and inject the breast, thighs, wings, and legs with the mixture.
- Assemble the roaster. Put the drip tray in first. Then, cover the heating element. Put the bottom rack over the heating element, then slide the top rack over the heating element cover.
- Put the bird over the top rack, legs first. The top of the heating element should be poking out from the neck area. If you are using the thermometer probe, put the probe in the breast and the thermometer on the outside. Put the glass cover on the unit.
- Set the cooker for 40 minutes on high with the center heating element on.
- The chicken is done when it reaches 165 °F (74 °C). Because you will be testing the breast, it will read a much higher temperature, about 176 °F (80 °C).
- Pull the chicken out of the roaster by using the remover. Lift the whole thing out.
- Let the chicken rest on the rack for 15-30 minutes before removing from the rack or carving it.
- Enjoy!
