Chicken temps

Tricky · 10-07-2012, 06:21 PM

Doing a full yardbird on the rotisserie on the built-in gasser in the new house. Just realized that the rotiss burner keeps going out and then re-lighting. Consequently the temp in the unit is around 275. I usually cook chic around 325 or as low as 300.

What kind of results can I expect at 275? I'm tempted to just pull the bird and pop it in the oven at 325. Thoughts?

It will cook fine as long as you cook it long enough. You will probably get a better texture overall going hotter.

The skin may be softer, but 275 isn't bad.

Popped it in my kitchen oven for 15 minutes at 400 at the end, just to crisp up the skin. Would have loved to have done that on my rotisserie ...
