Can I use ordinary cotton twine to truss a chicken? Or does it have to be a food specific twine?

Never use any synthetic twine as it will melt. It is much the same as patching for a muzzle loading weapon. It has to be 100% cotton or the results will be quite ugly.
Butchers twine is not expensive anywhere. The last I bought was at a pricey cookware store. I bought it because it came in a nifty plastic container with a cutter. Seemed like a good idea at the time. Less than bucks. I quickly reverted back to my old ways of cutting the string with a knife.Where can you buy inexpensive butchers twine?
I got 400 feet of 100% cotton twine for 2 bucks.....enough to last me a lifetime....LOL...
The two whole chickens I did on the rotisserie came out excellent, btw. I dry rubbed them the night before.
Yeah, no kidding, considering Amazon sells pretty much the same thing but labeled butcher's twine for much more than that.You not only got 400' of cotton twine for 2 bucks... you got 400' of butcher's twine for 2 bucks
