Step 1

Remove the chicken from refrigeration and packaging an hour before placing it in the oven.

Step 2

Build and start your fire, using enough wood to take it to 750 degrees. (At which point, you will let it burn down to coals with the door completely closed and the vent flue mostly closed to retain heat.)~Meanwhile~

Step 3

In a large bowl, toss the vegetables in grapeseed oil, salt, and pepper, then arrange them in the pan around the rack.

Step 4

Wash and dry your chicken. Combine salt, pepper, and paprika and rub it on the chicken; place chicken on the rack.Cover the whole pan and rack with a foil tent, and poke a dozen or so small holes in it for steam venting. (Otherwise, you’re steaming the chicken rather than roasting it.)

Step 5

When your oven cools to 550-600 degrees F, rake the coals to one side and place the pan in the oven parallel to the banked coals. Replace the door. Let it bake for 10-12 minutes.

Step 6

Turn the pan 180 degrees and let bake for 25-30 minutes. Turn the pan 180 degrees again and let bake for a final 10-15 minutes. (Mine was done after 50 minutes.)

Step 7

Remove the pan from oven and let it rest with the foil in place for 5 minutes. Remove the foil and let it rest another 5-10 minutes. At this point, I checked the temperature at a thigh joint-- Goal is 165 - 180 degrees F.Enjoy!
