Critical Success Points

  • Ensure the skin is intact when selecting the bird (Step 1).
  • Inject the brine evenly (Step 2).
  • Pipe the farce without tearing the skin (Step 8).
  • Stitch the skin securely with skewers (Step 9).
  • Monitor internal temperature during low‑temp roast (Step 10).
  • Perform the high‑heat blast carefully to avoid burning (Step 12).

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw chicken with separate cutting board and wash hands thoroughly to avoid cross‑contamination.
  • Use a meat injector carefully; never inject over open flames.
