Doing a rotisserie chicken this weekend, how should I season it? Just salt and pepper with olive oil?
First time using my rotisserie.

Unless you're talking about dry brining, it's a waste of time.

Even a slight spice rub will make it amazing, that being said if you want to go pure, more power to you.
Brine is important for juicy chicken, but not essential. How attentive will you be to the rotisserie?

I would stuff the cavity with a tied bundle of rosemary, thyme, and sage, along with a few lemon wedges. You could even stuff if with sliced fennel and fennel greens.
If you're gonna brine it, I would add in bay leaves, rosemary, thyme, sage, black peppercorns, and couple of sliced lemons and oranges. Don't go for too long though or it might get too salty. If you get it just right the meat will be more juicy and I've heard it can reduce cooking time.

What the fuck are you trying to do, split the universe?

Brine it overnight. Water, soy sauce, poultry seasoning, and optionally some sugar or karo.

bread.

Bread normally isn't crunchy on the outside with the kind of gooey-chewy center that kids crave.
