I’m sure we will be working with treacle factory in the future, and they come highly recommended from myself and our team. Simply select your meat and cut from the menu and type in the weight in kg (if it's a bird tell us the stuffed weight). We have always found the Treacle Factory team to be extremely helpful, giving us options /samples of work and making sure the work is done to a set deadline.

Push your fingers between the skin and the flesh to loosen it a little so that you can get a good amount of stuffing in. The ratings/reviews displayed here may not be representative of every listing on this page, or of every review for these listings. Tilt the tin slightly and use a spoon or turkey baster to scoop up some of the fat, and then drizzle it carefully over the chicken.

It's best to calculate your cooking time at 40 minutes per kg or 20 minutes per lb to get the most accurate time. Once your meat is cooked, rest it in a warm place covered with tented foil for the time specified in the calculator. Defrost turkey in a cool room for 3–4 hours per kilogram or in a fridge at 4C for 10–12 hours per kilogram. Whether you choose a standard chicken, free range or organic is a matter of personal choice, but if possible, go for the best you can afford.

Push a halved lemon and a few sprigs of herbs into the cavity – parsley, thyme and bay leaves all give chicken a good flavour.

Sit the bird in a roasting tin slightly larger than the chicken, and don’t cover it with foil or you won’t achieve a crisp skin.During this time the roast will finish cooking, become juicier and easier to carve – and don’t worry, it won’t get cold. A simple lemon and thyme breadcrumb stuffing is lovely in the summer months, or try a more robust pork and nut stuffing in the winter.
