When you were talking to Peggy & I before Christmas, I was really interested on your plan for "chickens for two".....wow the dinner looks fabulous and I know we are going to "try" when we are next roasting a chicken sometime soon in the New Year

ps: your "turkey tip"....... yes we cooked breast down, a light rub over the bird with extra virgin olive oil, then sprinkled with dried thyme leaves (we couldn't find fresh)....... orange slices layed on top of the bird, then 7 strips of thickly cut bacon (from Tony's meats) layed over the orange slices... outstanding !! thanks

Randy

All the best in 2008 and keep wrting.

Hey Randy!

Thanks for checking in!! I will email you some brine recipe for chickens as I will be looking for some ideas for brines to try. I was impressed with the results!

Glad to hear the breast down method worked well for you!

I'll be coming up to see you soon with a bottle for Zin so we can get a glow on together!

Happy New Year to you both!

Very cool blog. And, despite the fact that I'm a lifelong vegetarian, I am hungry now!
