Buffalo Roast Chicken

The taste of a buffalo wing in a whole roasted chicken! This would be great with a salad that has bleu cheese. Grandma clipped this from a "Woman's World" magazine and sent it my way. Spicy!

Awesome roasted chicken, my PAC Mom :) ! I had a two-pack of whole chickens (11.5 lbs total), so I just doubled the seasonings. I used Frank's Red Hot Chili and Lime sauce for the hot pepper sauce. The only thing that would've made this chicken better is if I had an injector so the flavoring went all the way through the chicken. Even without an injector, the cooked chicken was nice, juicy, and delicious. Not as spicy as you would expect with all the spicy stuff added, either, just really flavorful. Since I made this just to have some shredded chicken on hand for other things, this is going to make some yummy tostadas, quesadillas and chicken salad. Thanks for posting (and adopting me)! :)Reply
