We ended up roasting a 3.5# bird for the Thanksgiving table. Used this recipe with a few minor adjustments (no bacon, reduced brine due to size of bird, no roast carrot/potatoes underneath--just thinly slice onion to turn into gravy. The breast was nice and tender and the skin was sooo yellow and crispy! There was only one chewy bit on a portion of each drum, but overall the flavor was good.
I used the carcass today to make some soup. The leftovers were fairly picked clean and I only had the torso to work with, but I got 3.5qt of deeply fragrant, golden broth.
Huckleberry made for some good eating. Not as mind blowing as I was hoping for, but I learned a lot that should make for better birds next batch.
