• Wash the chicken inside and out with cold water, then pat dry using a paper towel.

• Tie the legs and wings together securely with cotton butchers twine, then tie string around the body of the chicken in two places.
• Set grill to high heat.
• Thread the chicken on the rotisserie spit, then place on the rotisserie grill.
• Cook chicken for 10 minutes on high heat.
• After 10 minutes on high heat REDUCE the grill heat to medium then baste the chicken all over with some of the melted butter mixture (leave some to baste with during cooking time).
• Close the lid and cook for 1 to 1-1/2 hours basting occasionally or until the chicken is cooked through and internal temperature reaches 180 degrees F when taken with a meat thermometer.
• Cooking time will vary just slightly depending on the size of the chicken.
• Remove the chicken from the rotisserie and place on a large plate.
• Cover loosely with foil and let stand for about 15 minutes before slicing.

KITTENCAL'S BEST BLASTED RAPID-ROAST WHOLE CHICKEN

Steps:

• Rinse the chicken inside and out well under cold water, then pat dry using a paper towel.
• In a small bowl mix the lemon juice with oil and melted butter until blended, then rub all over the chicken.
• Using clean hands rub the inside and outside of the chicken with seasoned salt, garlic powder, black pepper and cayenne (you can season the chicken under the skin also if desired).
• Place the lemon/s inside the cavity.
• Place the chicken into a baking dish (you can place the chicken onto a small roasting rack if desired and you may want to add in a little water to the pan to prevent smoking).
• Using cotton string tie the legs together tightly.
• At this point you may cover and refrigerate for up to 6 hours (not more than that or the acid in the lemon juice will start to "cook" the chicken).
• Set oven to 450 degrees F.
• Roast the chicken at 450 degrees for 20 minutes, then reduce the heat to 400 degrees and continue roasting for about 40 minutes (or until the internal temperature reaches about 175 to 180 degrees F. about 1 hour or a little less).
• Cover with foil and let sit for 15 minutes before slicing (do not slice before that time or the juices will flow out!).
