Ingredients
- 1,3kg whole chicken
Stuffing
- 3 slices white or brown bread
- 15ml (1 Tbsp) milk
- 60ml (1/4 cup) Spur Southern Style BBQ Sauce
- 1/2 onion, finely chopped
- 15ml (1 Tbsp) freshly chopped thyme or 5ml (1 tsp) dried thyme
- About 3ml (1/2 tsp) Spur Seasoning Salt
Basting Sauce
- 60ml (1/4 cup) cooking or olive oil
- 60ml (1/4 cup) Spur Grill Basting
- 60ml (1/4 cup) Spur Hickory Basting
- 30ml (2 Tbsp) water
Method
- Wash the inside of the chicken under running water. Place chicken in a large roasting pan.
- Stuffing: Soak bread slices in milk and Spur Southern Style BBQ Sauce until soft. Add all the other ingredients and stuff the chicken. Truss the chicken (close with string).
- Basting: Drizzle half of the oil over the chicken and place in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 15 minutes. Mix remaining oil with the basting sauces and water. Brush the chicken all over.
- Roast further for about 1 1/4 hours, basting frequently. If the chicken becomes too brown, just cover lightly with foil. Roast for about 1 1/2 hours in total, or until the chicken is cooked through and brown.
Variations
- Substitute Spur Grill Basting with an other Spur basting of choice.
- Roast chicken with any vegetables of choice, such as carrots, broccoli, or potatoes.
- To truss a chicken ensures that the legs and wings get fastened, to maintain an even shape while roasting, but it is not necessary.
- Roast the chicken halfway and then make slight diagonal cuts into the chicken breasts so the basting sauce is absorbed more.
