The Colonel also had a Roasted chicken that was mighty tasty . The chicken was marinated also and then baked with his famous seasonings. The baking process was long it takes 4 hours to bake it. It is baked at 225 for 2 hours till the internal temp was at 175. But for you at home I have updated this to be baked at a higher temperature and be prepared in less time. But lower temp. is better, see sticky chicken link below for ideas.

Directions
Trim the excess fat from the chicken.
Marinade the chicken in the mixture for 3 to 4 hrs or overnight.
Remove the chicken from the marinade and allow to dry.
Sprinkle the chicken lightly with seasoning. Rub into skin for best flavor.
Place on baking pan and bake at 325F for 1 to 1½ hrs until chicken is done.
Allow to sit for 20 minutes to rest, then serve.
If you have the time roast at a lower temperature for a longer time. 5 hours at 250 degrees F would be reasonable starting point.
Use an instant read thermometer to be certain to cook to a safe internal temperature, at that temperature for that time it’s likely the meat will simply be fall off the bone tender and juicy.
