Post by: squirtthecat on August 19, 2012, 09:27:03 PM

Chop up the vegetation and pile in a brownie pan. Season with some Money rub.

Tuck some butter inside of the bird, along with some more Money, and truss.  Rub the entire critter down with 2T of butter and nest in the veggies.

That is a great looking meal!  You make any gravy with the veggie stock and poultry juices?

Yeah boy... I was wondering the same thing. That'd make some awfully good chicken gravy.
