Most of creating a roast chicken that good is in sourcing the chicken. Breeds optimized for flavor rather than economics, fed a chicken’s natural diet, grown at the chicken’s natural pace, and handled carefully, slaughtered shortly before cooking.
There is technique like injecting the brine and managing the smoke flavors but that’s like 10% of the work of raising the chicken.
