Roasting Chicken Indoors - Lots of Smoke

Darn! I sent this post to rfc by mistake. Didn't mean to crosspost.

I've complained so much about the Allure III not being adequate, but
we are still using it and I am doing most of my cooking on the
leftside of the stove where the vent fan is located in order for the
steam to best go up into. The larger elements are located on the
rightside and do not adequately take up the steam.

Today I am roasting a chicken in the oven on convection @ 425º and the
smoke/steam is RUSHING out into the room 3' - can you believe this?
-- more from the right-hand-side oven vent. However, the Allure III
at full blast cannot capture this type of exhaust.

I have opened the windows, the exhaust fan is on highest, I have had
to turn off my furnace continuous fan (the ducts and furnace are new)
so this smoke will not permeate the new ducts (the smoke smell is all
over the house.)

I have poured a little water on the bottom of the roasting pan to keep
it from smoking as much.

My stove is

Upset.

Sorry to hear about all that smoke, Dee. Just a thought, but 425 is a pretty
hot roasting temp. Any oven will produce a lot of smoke, even with water in
the bottom of the pan. I tend to roast my chix at 350 or 375.

Hope you got things cleared out OK.

It's calming down -- but I think DH is going to have to take the
'heat' on this one ;-). He wanted a crispy chicken and produced two
recipes, one at 425, the other at 450. No more 425 degree roasted
chicken!

I do 425 (standard gas over) for 30 mins then 325 for the remainder of the
time (about 45 minutes for a 4 lb bird). Works perfectly every time. Never
any smoke, although we have a pretty powerful extractor fan.

At 30 minutes is when the smoking started. We let this 5# bird go for
1:30 minutes, but it was very juicy in spite of the length of time and
high inside-of-the-bird temperature.
I think I will check the temperature of the oven.
Thanks,
Dee

I regularly do poultry at 450 for twenty to thirty minutes before
dropping the oven temp to 325 for the duration. Never smokes me out of
the house, but results in crispy skin and juicy meat.

Have you considered putting two cups of water in the roasting pan so
the fat drips into it and does not burn off and smoke? It's a trade
secret, but I'll sell it to you for only $50.

I convection roast at 300 to 325F. Any higher burns the skin and the
meat is raw.
