    Hi all. I'm planning to roast a couple of small chickens (each about 1.2kg) for lunch tomorrow.

    I need to go out for a few hours in the morning and want to slow roast them. (I don't like the flabby skin you get in a slow cooker.)

    If anyone has any tips for times and temperatures I'd love to hear them. I'm thinking 150 for 2-3 hours?

    Your timing sounds about right.
    Lemon, thyme and lots of garlic. Yum.

    Boil the kettle and throw a little bit of hot water in the tray. Helps make fabulous gravy later on.

    Cover them in tinfoil, take off for the last half hour of cooking to crisp up the skin. Omnomnom!

    160 for 1hr 45 mins.
    Lemon in the cavity, thyme, paprika, salt and honey on the skin.

    Deliciously tender and crispy skin.

    2 hours 10 minutes at 150. Salt, pepper, butter, thyme, lemon. They were incredibly succulent with lovely crispy skin. Eaten with baby potato salad, coleslaw and greens.

    Thanks for your help!
