What Temperature Is A Whole Roasted Chicken Done?
A whole roasted chicken is done when its internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) as measured by a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the chicken, usually the thigh or breast. This ensures that the chicken is safe to eat and has reached the desired level of doneness. It usually takes around 1.5 to 2 hours to roast a whole chicken to reach this temperature.
