Hi everyone, my name is Cella & I'm brand spankin' new to this site so please bare with me.
I came across discusscooking.com after I Googled "How long do you cook a whole chicken"? I've read all of the comments and sadly I'm still unsure. I am a beginner in the kitchen (hence the "bare with me" statement) so forgive me if the answer should have been obvious.
I have a 8.30 lb Purdue whole fryer and I don't know how long I should cook it, nor do I know what temperature to cook it at?
Like everyone else, all I want is for the thing to be juicy! So cooking it "low & slow" is preferred, right? Also, do I baste it or do anything else? Heck, I don't even know if I cover the thing with foil or not!
If anyone could tell me the play by play instructions for this, I'd greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance ~ Cella
