Rated 4 out of 5 by from interesting idea I did not use the stick of butter, since the chicken juices & fat may be enough during the cooking. Did everything else. Stir the drippings during the cooking time and baste the chicken. If you need some butter add at the last hour.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing! I added habenero peppers. Used a pork gravy packet instead of au jous since that's what I had on hand. Juicy, flavorful, incredible. Will be making again and again.
