Medieval Times-style Roasted Chicken

3–4 chicken leg quarters (or 6–8 bone-in, skin-on thighs or drumsticks)

2 cups lemon juice (fresh or bottled)

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons Uncle Dibbz Durtty Bird Rub

2 tablespoons Uncle Dibbz Atlanta Lemon Pepper – Mild

1 tablespoon Uncle Dibbz Memphis Bussin BBQ Rub

1 tablespoon soy sauce (optional, adds umami depth)

¼ cup water (optional, if marinade needs thinning)

Preheat oven: Set to 400°F.
Make the marinade: In a large bowl, whisk lemon juice, olive oil, Durtty Bird Rub, Atlanta Lemon Pepper, Memphis Bussin BBQ Rub, and soy sauce. Add a splash of water if too thick.
Coat the chicken: Pat chicken dry and toss in marinade until fully coated. Let sit 10–30 minutes at room temperature.
Roast: Place chicken skin-side up on a foil-lined baking sheet. Roast 40–45 minutes, or until internal temp reaches 165°F. Optional: Broil 2–3 minutes at the end for crispy, charred skin.
Rest & Serve: Let chicken rest 5 minutes before serving. Pair with corn, broccoli, and Texas toast for the full Medieval Times-inspired dinner.
