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
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!
Very nicely done work on the blog. I haven't looked at all of the recipes yet however there are a few that sound quite delicious. I have it bookmarked in my favorites. I look forward to reading your updates.
HIRE CHEF MARKO!!!! catering / dinner parties / cooking lessons / seminars / consulting and much, much more!!!! Inquire @ livingstoncooks@gmail.com
WHY THE HELL AM I DOING THIS?
The purpose behind LIVINGSTON COOKS is not to provide my readers with recipes so much as to provide them with some of the techniques necessary to fine cooking. Cooking is something that, like all skills, requires time and practice to master. Learning how to cook recipe by recipe is like taking a trip across Canada and using side roads rather than taking the Trans Canada Highway. Yeah, you'll get there, but it'll take you a while.
So, a teaspoon of this and a cup of that you'll rarely find on LIVINGSTON COOKS. Unless I'm posting a baking recipe, that is. But I'll try to show you principles by simplification and will encourage you to think about cooking techniques rather than just following a list of ingredients.
All of the photography on LIVINGSTON COOKS is done by myself and the shots are of food that I have prepared as well. Some posts take a bit of time to put together but I try to add content very regularly.

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