What happens to the chicken that makes it last for so long once cooked? If I roast a chicken I'd only keep it for a max of 72 hrs in fridge before discarding it.

The dough also creates an air tight seal around the chicken. The chicken is not being open during the three days without refrigeration or fifteen days in the frig. The time starts ticking once the chicken is exposed.

the dough applied around chicken creats pressue inside when heatef so chicken is cooked in its own jucies and spices go deep inside,this pressure and heat entraped inside kill bacteria and make it imune fir longer period

But how does that prevent the natural bacterial growth you get on cooked meats? Even with all the chemicals and sterile processes in the food manufacturing industry cooked meats should only be consumed up to 72 hrs after opening. I'm naturally curious about a technique that extends food life by five times the normal lifespan. (And if wrong potentially puts lives at risk...)

I ate chicken over a week old, and still alive. What are you crying about? The meat you are speaking of is processed by many hands, therefore more susceptible to higher levels of contamination. Grow and Kill your own meat and you wont have to worry so much.

a tandoori can go above 800 degree c

That looks really good. Is there a way to cook without a tandoor? Making a tandoor is one of my planned projects, but I have a lot of others that are higher on my TODO list .

Thanks for appreciation. Cooking in a tandor is way better than other methods , but I have an idea to sove this problem just dig a pit in a place where mud is dry put burning hot coal into it then place the chickenand cover it with some more coal and close the pit . This would help chicken cook evenly

That sounds sort of like the conditions in a smoker whose temperature is too high. What sort of temperature does the tandoor maintain?

In a smoker chicken does not make a direct contact with coal but in a tandoor it does .
