Rinse out and pat the chicken dry.
Stuff with your favorite ingredients. Today I used:
garlic, fresh herbs, orange slices, onion and S&P.
Fill the seasoning well. So many choices here!
This one was butter with herbs and lemon juice.
Now, put the chicken on the well, legs down.
It will be nice and secure unlike a beer can.
I buttered and seasoned the outside.
Plug the neck hole with foil to keep the
steam and juices inside.
steam and juices inside.
You'll probably need to remove one of your oven
racks. Put the chicken inside...
THEN turn then oven on to 350 and roast
for about 1-1/2 hours. No need to baste.

Always place the chicken and the

I popped a few sweet potatoes along side.
It uses the concept of the beer-can chicken.
Liquid from the seasoning well steams the
chicken from the inside out.

Lots of recipes on their website HERE.
The chicken browns beautifully on all sides.
The fat drains off.
Skim the fat from the well and you'll be left with
lots of natural juices to spoon over the chicken.

I recently found your site - loving it! I had a similar item (was made of some type of metal) but didn't hold the chicken up as well as I would have liked and was a pain to clean. I always had a problem with splattering in the oven too during the roasting time (so messy!) I suppose there is no way to avoid that though?! I would love to win!
ReplyDeleteAwwweee! That looks amazing, I want one!! The chicken looks like it cooks perfectly!
ReplyDeleteI love this, thanks for the chance to win. looks yummy.
ReplyDeleteThe chicken looks perfectly golden and of course, yummy!! Thanks for the chance on your great giveaway, never seen anything like this! I love it! Hugs,

What a great invention!!! I would love one of those! That recipe looks great also!!! Thanks for sharing! =)
ReplyDeleteOk, I'm in. That chicken looks like something I might be able to handle. Love the Blog and your background wallpaper is great!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I've been using vertical roasters for years but hadn't a clue anything so nice (ceramic) was available. Thanks for this info, and your suggestions for seasoning a chicken.
ReplyDeleteI just recently found you and have enjoyed so many of your recipes already ! How I would love to win your chicken roaster. It looks like the perfect way to roast a perfect chicken !!

Love reading about your recipes!!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen a roaster like that before. I would love to try one.
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your blog and the recipes. i would love to try baking a chicken this wat
ReplyDeleteI would love to use this little booger..I've often wondered how moist the chicken would be done this way. I have a Tajine (sp) domed shaped gizmo that rolls the steam back into the meat,,but this seems like it would be fun, and puts the goodies on the inside. wow. I've always like the hand made pottery look. something about its earthy flair...

It looks fantastic! I've done the beer can thing on a barbecue, but never considered being able to do it inside, in an oven. Great idea!

Yes, I certainly would LOVE it, Rita!! I've done the beer can chicken, but it does sit on there rather precariously. This looks so perfect. Your chicken looks great. I guess the cooker could be used on a grill, too? Thanks for the opportunity to win.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great giveaway. I have a flimsy wire contraption, but this is much nicer. Thanks so much for the opportunity to enter.
ReplyDeleteLooks delicious! I would love to have one of these. Thanks for the opportunity to win one.
ReplyDeleteI have always been intrigued by cooking chicken this way, but have never tried it. I'd love to win one of these vertical roasters.

That looks amazing! Roast chicken is one of my absolute favorite things to make: its easy and delicious!
ReplyDeleteI probably found you too late to enter, but had to comment: that is one tasty looking chicken. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you posted this. Someone sneakily left one of these cookers in my house without the box or any note saying what it was. My guess was a chicken roaster, so did a search on "pottery chicken roaster" and found it was a Tumbleweed cooker. Then I found your post. Will be trying it out soon!
ReplyDeleteHow lovely! I've been using vertical roasters for years but hadn't a clue anything so nice (ceramic) was available. Thanks for this info, and your suggestions for seasoning a chicken.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your site, Rita! I was looking up how to us my ceramic roaster, found that and great recipes-right here!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! This is awesome and looks so very easy. Sounds delicious. THank you for sharing
