People are making gravy rubs for their roast chicken with granules

Any Sunday at home is made significantly better by a roast chicken.

But the latest trend on TikTok takes a cupboard staple and reinvents it to create a wonderful addition to the humble roast dinner.

Foodies on the platform have taken Bisto granules and developed a gravy rub that's slathered onto the chicken for a crispy skin.

All it requires is a few simple ingredients to mix with your favourite gravy granules. Then this mixture is popped on a roast chicken before it heads into the oven.

A TikTok video posted by @caughtsnackin, detailing the hack, has racked up more than 332,000 views so far – along with 12,000 likes and nearly 100 comments.

He adds that to complete your roast dinner, pop the vegetables and potatoes underneath the roast chicken on a wire rack, as this will ensure they mop up any juices that escape.

It's safe to say that people have been blown away by the simple yet effective food trick.

One person commented: ‘Mouth-watering’

While another added: ‘I’m all about that gravy life.’

The recipe can be found below – and it couldn't be simpler. And while the video looks like it's in collaboration with Bisto, it's worth pointing out that any brand's granules would work as well.
