    Extremely unhelpful and impractical

    Id say just follow Thomas Keller's approach to roasting a chicken, I've tried both and Thomas' recipe is quicker, easier and pretty much perfect.

    I started this recipe the day after this video was posted… I'm now successfully on step 2. By 2021 I hope to taste this chicken. May God have mercy on my stomach and tastebuds.

    30 seconds in boiling water wont kill all bacteria, there's a reason why we use autoclaves, 121 degree Celsius for 20 minutes in our lab..

    I've cooked leg of venison in an oven, 2Kg for 5 hours at 60C, deliciously juicy.  Birds need to be scolded to kill harmful bacteria.

    This is seriously convoluted.

    I would love to try this; however, BBCFood didn't load part 2 for American viewing.  I guess it's back to KFC.  I wonder if that would work with a Turkey?

    Preposterous! Going into so much stage and into so much trouble just to cook a Bird! Jaime Oliver can do better without the scientific gibber-jabber. As Genaro Contaldo said: "…when cooking you don't have to be precise… you cook with love" or something like that.
