How do i calculate cooking time for 2 whole chickens at once in my turkey fryer?

Question

If i cook 1 whole 3lb chicken it says 4-5 min a pound but if i put 2 whole 3 pound chickens in a at once do I calculate it as 6 pounds times 4-5 min total cooking time

Answer 1

if you are stacking the chickens one on top of the other ( just like the turkey would normally go) then I would cook it for the time for ONE chicken because the cooking time is based on the approximate thickness of the turkey breast based on weight.  In other words, you are not cooking ONE chicken that weighs 6lbs total, so the breast is much smaller in a 3lb chicken than a 6lb chicken - hope this makes sense.  I don't know how else to explain

Answer 2

10 minutes should more than cook your chicks.

Carfefully take their temp at 8 minutes, looking for 160F.

Let sit and serve.

Answer 3

We do turkeys at 3 minutes a pound.  Not sure how much for chicken...  you would think a bit less.  Wish I could help!

Answer 4

Same time.....

Answer 5

Put them in for a half hour.

If eachother pound = 4-5

1=5

2=10

3=15

since there are to do the same things

1=5

2=10

3=15

15 + 15 = 30min.

Hope that helps!! ♥
