Here’s one of the coolest live-fire dishes on the planet—a whole chicken scented with fresh herbs, sealed in a salt crust, and roasted in a wood-burning oven (Chicago Brick Oven),
shown here on the set of Primal Grill. The salt adds flavor while sealing in moisture. And the act of cracking open the smoky golden salt crust tableside never fails to impress. For this recipe, see page 363 of Planet Barbecue by Steven Raichlen (Workman, 2010).
