Chicken brick, interesting name and one I must admit not hearing before. My wife was wandering round the Weston Mills site looking for some new pots/bowls for the kitchen when she found this and ordered one to have a go

Seems to get good reviews and if the gumf is anything to go by a tastier healthier way to cook chicken. Anyone used one? how did it fare? was the chicken any better in this than a roasting pan?

Thanks everyone,
Malc.

They're a great way to cook a chook. Keeps it really nice & moist. Keeps all the flavour in too. British Red had a picture up over in his Pioneer the chicken thread the other day. Showed just how good a chook can look.

Thanks guys. The chook you cooked looks really tasty BR. I just hope I bought one big enough as my wife loves chicken. :) The instruction say to soak for 10-15 minutes I was wondering if this was long enough.

I am the proud owner of one that my German pen friend brought over as a gift to my Mum in the seventies, when she died I got it. Great for chicken, excellent for pheasant, grouse etc as they can dry out when roast but cooked in this with some aromatics and a splash of wine are excellent.
There is a recipe book that came with it, in Germany they are called Romwetifp or Roman pot in translation, bet there will be recipes on tinterweb if you have a look.
its so easy to use, just soak before as saaid above. Bought a pheasant only today with it in mind !
 
Awesome piece of kit, mine is from the 70's and I fell heir to it.

Not used it in a while, will remedy that tomorrow!

Thanks for this thread :-D

First I'd ever heard of them too (the thread BR posted that is) At first glance I thought it was just an oven to be placed in the oven. Then I read the bit about soaking it and it made much more sense. Cool idea!
 
that looks a grear addition to a kitchen. Alas....we dont have an oven....but our chickens come out tender and juicy with the swing method....cheap too with a couple handfuls of charcoal....

Not sure about chickens, but whenever I have camped at the same site as Chiseller there always seems to be a squealing pig .............
