“I wouldn't take offense, Matthew. It's likely that she was just thinking from her perspective as a busy Mom and not purposefully excluding all of the wonderful male cooks out there! That said, I'm a squeamish gal that freaking hates rubbing butter on raw ” — a cook, 5.0★
“Made this yesterday. Turned out just like the picture shows. I did use only 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning. Moist and tender, easy to put together. I'd post a picture but can't find how to do it.” — a cook, 5.0★
