Roasting a whole bird on the grill over indirect heat results in crackling crisp skin and moist tender meat. Toasting the peppercorns in a skillet adds a surprising depth of flavor.

wine recommendation

The forward fruit of a dry or an off-dry Riesling will accentuate the spices and provide a bright contrast to the sweet, smoky nuances in this dish. Two good examples: the 1999 Dr. Loosen Riesling QbA Mosel-Saar-Ruwer from Germany and the 2000 Giesen Riesling Canterbury from New Zealand.
