    I like cooking, so I went all out trying to cook a nice chicken dinner for me and my wife. I made stock the day before, brined a chicken, made basically everything from scratch, etc. In my haste to get everything ready, I cooked the chicken upside down. 🤦‍♂️

    Alongside this, I have IBS, but am relatively lucky in that I can usually see the signs of when my stomach will start acting up. I’ve been planning a boxing day walk, and I’m so bloated my stomach looks bigger than my (30 weeks pregnant) wife’s. It’s gonna be a fun day…

      Really sorry about the IBS. That always sucks. Re the chicken- what happens when you cook it upside-down? Isn’t meat meat? Sorry, I’m totally ignorant on this.

        Nah man, it becomes ɯǝɐʇ if you cook it upside down. Still pretty tasty but it’s just not the same…

        I’ve only ever heard of it being a plus. It’s supposed to make the breast meat juicier.

        I also do not know, but perhaps the aesthetic of the meal was thrown off which would suck after all that prep work. Bet it tasted fire tho

      I cook turkey and chicken upside down. It makes the white meat much better. If you need to see the finished bird like it looks in advertisements, take it out with 15 minutes left, flip it over and pop it under the broiler.
