Whole Roast Chicken

What is it?

Roast chicken sits at the centre of Red Rooster’s menu, usually sold whole for sharing. It’s seasoned, oven-roasted and served with the skin on, so you get a browned exterior and moist white and dark meat underneath. The flavour leans savoury, with a light herb and spice note rather than heavy smoke or fry oil. Compared with the rest of the brand’s lineup, this is the plainest, most traditional item. It’s closer to a takeaway chicken shop roast than the burgers or fried pieces Red Rooster also sells. Depending on the store, it may be served hot or carved, with sides like chips, gravy or stuffing.
