Having a chicken for dinner.....Any Recipes?

I used Kosher salt but I ran out so I also used regular. The bird was put in a big stock pot with the brine overnight in the fridge. Had to move a lot of stuff around in the fridge to make room, but it was worth it.
 
I let mine rest a few days in the fridge as well. But years ago, long before anyone around here heard of a Cornish cross, grandma would run a old rooster or hen down in the yard and take it to the chopping block and off came the head. It was in the frying pan before it ever got cold.
Sure was good chicken.

Yours will turn out fine. Just cook it overnight and on low.

Isn't that the truth! Grandma didn't have all the books, rules, specifications, restrictions, dos and don'ts list, age charts, etc. and the chickens were fine, healthy and tasty at just about any age! I read everything I can get my hands on, worry about everything I might not be doing right, worry about what they eat, are they warm enough, what should I be doing that I'm not doing yet, what changes should be made.....My husband thinks I am paranoid and we have the most spoiled chickens in the USA! I need to relax and let them be chickens!
They, however, do not seem to have any complaints!
