| 2 Whole | (3-1/2 to 4 lb) roasting chickens, each cut into 8 pieces |
| 2 Whole | lemons, quartered |
| 1/3 Cup | extra-virgin olive oil |
| 4 Clove | garlic, minced |
| 1 1/2 Tablespoon | fresh oregano |

Steps
1
Arrange the chicken pieces in a single layer in a large roasting pan. Squeeze the juice from each piece of lemon over the chicken, catching any seeds in your fingers. Tuck the lemon rinds in with the chicken. Drizzle the olive oil over all.
2
Sprinkle the garlic over the chicken. Dust the chicken with the fresh oregano, and season it generously with the Traeger Chicken rub, or salt and black pepper. Pour the chicken broth into the pan.
3
When ready to cook, set the Traeger to 350℉ and preheat, lid closed for 15 minutes.
4
Roast the chicken for an hour, or until the juices run clear or the internal temperature reaches 165℉ on an instant-read meat thermometer.
