The day before cooking, place your chicken on a baking sheet or rack. Rub salt and pepper all over the skin, cavity, and under the skin over the breast meat. Place in the fridge overnight. Heat oven to 350 and put the chicken in. Bake for 1.5-2 hours, until meat near the bone is at least 165 and the legs and wings are loose when you wiggle them.
Rest for 5 minutes, then slice or shred. Serve with sides or use in recipes.
