That's right. It's official. Jim Perdue diagnosed me via his online roasterphobia test. The diagnosis was made a few months ago so I've had some time to accept it. Ever since that day I've been on a hunt for a Perdue Oven Ready Roaster. Last weekend, my dream came true and I spotted this beauty in the meat section.
The directions seemed easy enough but I was nervous.
Kelly step 1a - Google "roasting pan". Determine that you don't have a roasting pan. Pick between a pan and a glass dish. I selected the pan.
Step 2: Cut one small 1 inch slit in cooking bag over the breast to vent during cooking. Note: Cooking bag will expand during cooking; allow enough room for the bag to expand without touching oven rack or walls.
Kelly step 3a - Put pan in hot oven, realize your top rack is definitely in the way, wish you were better at paying attention while reading, move piping hot top rack.
Kelly step 3b - Wonder who the heck has or needs a meat thermometer anyways?
Making Shawn earn his keep.

You're on your way to cooking a complete turkey dinner for Thanksgiving! Congratulations!!! Mom (:
Run for the hills Kel..before you ever have to cook that Thanksgiving turkey...I still have flashbacks of your Grandma taking care of the turkey in the sink. Good job on the chicken! You have to see the link on how to cook a chicken from U. Jerry's cousin. I'll send it! xo
Strong progress....
Now you're ready to try Brian's way in the grill. It looks delicious!
Congratulations. Did Shawn like it? You should make him cook the next time. Love, Janet
