Hot Rock Chicken
Thanks very much to Connie Graff-Dawson, who shared this recipe with me!
Ingredients:
- 3-4 non-porous clean and dry rocks covered with aluminium foil
- 4 lb chicken
- barbecue sauce
Directions: Wrap rocks in foil, then place them in a good sized fire for 45 min. Spread many pieces of newspaper on ground near the fire. On top of the newspaper cover with a sheet of heavy aluminium foil. Cut slits on each side of the cavity opening of the chicken, so that it opens up. Set the chicken in the foil. Using tongs and oven mitts transfer rock from the fire to the chicken. Place one rock inside the cavity and the others around the chicken, they should sizzle on contact. Season as you like. Wrap up in foil, then wrap in newspaper (3 layers). Slide package into a garbage bag and twist shut. Leave for 5 hours unopened, beware of stem when opening up! Should be steaming and whitened meat and well cooked.
