    So my original plan was to make my entire pie today, and hope it stayed fresh for Thanksgiving. But from the response I got from my last question, I have decided to just make my pie filling today, and then finish putting the pie together tomorrow and baking it. do you think this is going to be ok? will my pie filling stay fresh? Sorry, I should have included that it was an Apple pie :-)

  • Baking a chicken: how long?

    Cooking & Recipes - 8 hours ago

    Additional Details

    I am cooking a whole chicken in a roast pot. It is 3-4 ilbs. I defrosted it entirely, washed it, removed the tidbits from inside, rubbed it down with shortening, and put it in a roast pot and put 4 cubed up gold potatoes around the edge. Been cooking on 350F now for just over an hour. So, the liquid is boiling on its own(the juices I didn't add water) the liquid comes out very yellowish, thick in color, but clear. It is clear running out. But the skin is still wet and very light colored, not browned and crisp like I expected. How much longer does it need to cook? Stainless roast pot with lid. I am at 5,000 ft elevation BTW. This needs to work out as it is all the food I have right now. Will it brown? Does it need to? Please help

    I do not eat meat because the poor little animals suffer. if they lived as long a they cold and ate good naturl stuff, then maybe i would eat meat, but thats not how they live, people kill for there food! HELLO!!!!!!!!!! we have other food like fruits or veggies or thing with no meat in it.People that are poor and cant afford any other food,Sure eat meat. but rich people or any one who is not poor who kill for there food even though there are other things to eat, is just mean. I think everyone who kills and torchers animals should be treated the way they treat the animals, like grind the poeple's noses down and skin them with no medience and stick them in tiny cages to live there horrid life for 35 days.Whos with me?
