Abstract: A roasting support for a disemboweled fowl that has openings at the head and tail ends, includes a base member that carries a generally conical, imperforate plug member adapted to sealingly engage one of the open ends of the fowl to retain fluids within the fowl during roasting. The roasting support also includes an elevated support member adapted to support the other open end of the fowl at a higher level than the first open end thereof so that fluids added to the interior of the fowl or generated during roasting of the fowl are retained within the fowl during such roasting. The method of roasting the fowl includes the steps of supporting the fowl in an oven with one of the openings plugged to prevent leakage of fluids from the interior of the fowl, while the other of the openings is at a higher elevation than the first opening, and applying heat to the fowl for a sufficient period of time to roast the fowl. Fluid can be added to the interior of the fowl before or during the heating step.
