Sorry that I'm not answering your question exactly, but roasting a chicken is so easy and a billion times better than the crap you get in a store. It's cheap too. Get a cast iron pan.

Step 1

Put a cast-iron skillet on a low rack in the oven and heat the oven to 500 degrees. Rub the chicken all over with the oil and sprinkle it generously with salt and pepper.

Step 2

When the oven and skillet are hot, carefully put the chicken in the skillet, breast side up. Roast for 15 minutes, then turn the oven temperature down to 350 degrees. Continue to roast until the bird is golden brown and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the meaty part of the thigh reads 155 to 165 degrees.

Step 3

Tip the pan to let the juices flow from the chicken’s cavity into the pan. Transfer the chicken to a platter and let it rest for at least 5 minutes. Carve and serve.

BOOOM.

Is it just me or is a big part of the problem that people aren't properly taking care of their own trees. I see so many trees in our town that need work but people don't want to pay for it, then they complain about Eversource when the trees take out power lines.

It's also crazy to me when I see people with $90k vehicles and they don't even have a portable generator and a properly set up electrical panel. It's not a big expense compared to your overpriced SUV.
