rave_demon,

I'm a PM, and i told this joke in a team meeting, and it SLAYED

rave_demon,

The roasted garlic aoli is so addictive and its not very hard to make. I roasted an entire head of garlic, squeezed it out into a food processor, and blended it with some regular mayo and a bit of lemon juice. Its not "real" aoli but who cares?

rave_demon,

YES!! One of my favorites

rave_demon,

I can't necessarily write out an entire recipe for you, but here are a few really key tips:

  • Find a good chicken brine recipe. The ratios are important, so if they say to use kosher salt don't use table salt. My ratio is like.... 1 gallon water, .7 cups kosher salt, 1 cup brown sugar, and then a handful of whole spices and things. Boil it, let it cool, and brine the chicken in it at least overnight, up to 24 hours
  • Spatchcock the chicken for easier and more even cooking. Alton brown has a good video for spatchcocking the chicken
  • Take it out of the fridge and dry it off about an hour before roasting. Let it come up to room temp a little
  • Use your fingers to separate the skin from the meat (without removing it). Here's my secret: a lot of people rub seasoned butter around the chicken and between the skin. I USE MAYONNAISE! I just mix in some dried italian seasoning and rub the mayo all over the chicken, and then in between the skin and meat
  • Roast at a high temp, I tink mine was 400-425 for 40 min. USE A MEAT THERMOMETER. I take mine out 5-10 degrees early. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes, it will come up to temp. If you take it out at temp, itll keep cooking and overcook and be dry. Be sure to check the breast, thigh, and deeper crevices before you decide to take it out. Don't worry, the brine will keep it from drying out too much

Hope this helps! This makes for a really juicy and comforting classic dinner meal

rave_demon,

Would you believe me if I told you it also tasted absolutely delicious? We invited some friends over and devoured the entire thing

rave_demon,

It actually did taste incredible. I essentially frankensteined 3 recipes together and made some tweaks. It was eaten in under an hour haha

rave_demon,

Hehe okay genuine question as I am new to Lemmy.... why do some of my photos upload sideways?

rave_demon,

Let's share it together :)

rave_demon,

100% apples my friend. I used a mandolin to slice the apples so that they were thin and uniform, but its hard to slice ALL of it right? So I took the little left over slivers, chopped them down, and cooked them into a soft apple pie filling with some sugar, lemon, a splash of white wine. Then I spread that into the par-baked crust before arranging the slices on top as you see. It made it taste really good, I'm glad I did that, but it was sort of something I came up with on the spot

rave_demon,

Thank you! I'm not sure why they rotate haha

rave_demon,
