The alternator is a generator that converts mechanical energy into electrical energy. It uses the revolving motion of a magnetic field around a stationary armature creating electricity which is then stored in the carâs battery and operate electrical functions.
After about 15 minutes, turn birds on the other side and cook an additional 10 minutes. Turn the bird breast up and cook another 20 minutes, basting the bird as it renders fat. In all, cook about 9 minutes per pound or about 45 minutes for a 5-lb duck, about 7 minutes per pound for an 11-lb goose.Remove the bird from the oven and set the bird aside on a platter. Remove any trussing and serve with sauce.urn the bird breast up and cook another 20 minutes, basting the bird as it renders fat.

First of all you will need to preheat the oven to a temperature of 375ÂºF (190ÂºC). Roasting a chicken does not take quite so long as roasting a turkey, however a large chicken could still take over 2 hours to roast. As a general rule, calculate a cooking time of 20 minutes per pound of meat plus an additional 10 - 20 minutes at a temperature of 375ÂºF (190ÂºC). Therefore, a 5 lb chicken will need to be roasting in the oven for at least 1h 50 mins. A 5 lb bird will serve between 4 - 5 people. Some people prefer to set the oven temperature to 450ÂºF (230ÂºC) and roast the bird at this high temperature for the first 10 - 15 minutes or the last 10 - 15 minutes. The rest of the time the chicken should be roasted at 375ÂºF (190ÂºC).
