The other day, Jenna did a post on her honey barbecue chicken.

That was it. I was hooked. I had to make a roasted chicken.

I ran to the basement…yesss, a bird was just waiting to be massaged with spice rub goodness.

My spice rub of choice?

Dinosaur’s Cajun Foreplay.

My entire family is obsessed.We had Dinosaur Bar-B-Que years ago when my cousin got married at Colgate University and they catered the rehearsal dinner. The barbecue salmon was out of this worrrrrrrrld….

Back to the bird.

So – I didn’t have honey (used it all…here), but that’s okay.

I stuffed the cavity with an entire lemon (halved) and 3 cloves of garlic. Seasoned the thing with salt, pepper…smothered it in about a tablespoon of olive oil and then liberally rubbed the Cajun Foreplay allll ovahh.

375 and about 1.5 hours later….a crispy, spicy, smokey, & sweet bird emerged.

Wicked juicy.

Craving. Complete.
