Absolutely! If you're like me, who used to have this underlying unknown fear of cooking them, I'm here to tell you that it's not nearly as scary as you might think. In fact, there's nothing scary about it at all! Cooking a whole chicken is not only easy to do but it's a money saver! It's way more cost effective than buying the chicken in parts. ANNNND, when it's done, you can use the bones and carcass to make chicken stock which you'd otherwise have to buy seperately. So, really it's a two in one deal that is absolutely worth jumping on!
