Re: Just put my 9-hour chicken in the oven

What an interesting idea.  I think I still would reassure myself with a meat thermometer.

@MOMMAVik- I did once try to cook an 11-lb. turkey breast-side down, but it didn't really work for me.  It does not brown using the low/slow method, which I think is essential for a turkey - but not (for me) with a chicken.  You could try with a small turkey, however, and let us know the results!

Turn the turkey (or chicken over) and sear the skin.   I use a butane torch to finish off the bird to make the skin extra crispy.  Works well when searing any kind of protein.

You can find on Amazon.  About $20.

This is what I use to sear proteins:
