It's true. As if the chicken wasn't good enough (it was), they had the mind to package it in a portable plastic container, and lovingly place this container on a shelf in a building that has a tendency to bring in some beautiful women. As if this wasn't enough, they even went as far as to place a sweet little bar code on the side of the fragile plastic chicken coffin. Those crafty wizards of science. True miracle makers you are, you chicken cooking grocery store people. Bravo, you creepy bastards.
With this being said, I can honestly and firmly say that rotisserie chickens are mankind's 3rd greatest achievement. The number 87 and yoga pants are clearly take first and second place, respectively. Birth control takes 4th place. That is all. You are dismissed. |

I love to rotisserie chickens on my Bar-b-que.
Game hens are also awesome to cook in this manner. Doesn't even require a lot of fancy spices - even just paprika yields an awesome bird. |

The ones at Sam's Club are pretty good for $4 or whatever they are.

It's all well and good until it gives you food poisoning so bad you don't fully recover for a year ... Haven't had grocery store rotisserie chicken since.

Supermarket version of a gas station rollerdog. I don't trust them. |
|
Just bought one from Publix and had the legs/wings and then made chicken salad out of the rest, for the last couple of days.
Easy enough and at about $6.50 per quality bird, they're pretty cheap. Chris |

I used to dig them, but not anymore. The meat always seems mushy/mealy compared to other cooking methods.

My ex gf bought me one of those Ronco things and I shit you not it actually made some good chicken.

If you have a child and work full time, you are doing yourself a great disservice. It's very easy and convenient to swing into Kroger or Giant Eagle and grab a chicken, beans, mashed taters and corn and walk out spending only $10. Since my wife and kid hate the dark meat, I just make chicken taco's with that meat the next day. |

if you buy it at a store, you fail View Quote I used to hit up the Commissary for lunch regularly. It was either to get a half of a rotisserie chicken or a fresh sub from the deli. Both were awesome deals. No way is a fresh rotisserie chicken from a store a fail when it's that cheap and I don't have time to make it. It kept me away from fast food like Burger King. |

I get one from Krogers about once a week. They time-stamp them, so you know exactly how fresh they are. Great value too, provides one big meal and I save the breast meat and pull it for a couple sammiches for lunch, three good meals for $6. I've never gotten a bad one from there, and if they don't have one ready they give it to you for free if you wait! I've gotten free ones several times.

Thanks Pops, but I know how to raise and feed my family. Sometimes cheap and easy is the only way to get it done. I do have a smoker that practically never cools down, and placing a whole, split chicken on it is the way to go. But unless you raise your own cattle, chickens and vegetables...someone else is doing the majority of the work for YOU too. |

The place here in town actually does a good job. The food is damn good, better than a few of our shitty excuses for restaraunts here in town. Wait... I guess it means our restaraunts suck. The food is good, and the good looking women actually dress sexy just to buy food. That's all I need to know. I'll be going back there before too long. |

Queue that new KFC commercial where the mom and dad come home, and they are opening the supermarket plastic tub with the rotisserie chicken, making a creaking sound as they do - and all the kids in the house stop and look. One girl asks 'Chicken again!?!". The baby is playing in a fort made of those plastic tubs. Another kid is wearing 'armor' made from those plastic tubs, while yet another is working on his volcano science project - made out of those same plastic tubs...

I like to strip all the skin off and eat it and then stick the naked chicken back in the frige.

They would be much more appealing to me if they weren't injected with salt water, brine, flavoring, or anything at all...They could salt and pepper the inside, then stuff the body cavity with onions and apples for me.

The big-ass rotisserie in the back of the deli is mesmerizing.
In Italy, I remember hanging out at a cafe in Sorrento watching them rotisserie banks of chicken on this open flame contraption. I thought to myself, "BB, these are the fuckers that engineer Ferrari's and Ducati's, putting that shit to use"...and then I drank another limonata. |
