Truly free-range large jointed chicken
81 day slow-grown 'total freedom' free-range chicken, pre-jointed. Ideal for casseroles and stews or to make up several meals across the week.
Reared to the highest welfare standards with freedom to roam and forage in outdoor space and access to warm dry indoor shelter. These slower growing birds are allowed to live a longer and more natural life than standard free-range birds and are given no antibiotics or growth hormones during their lifetime. The result of this longer and more natural life is a darker, firmer and denser meat with more fat and far more flavour.
Our jointed chicken are prepared from extra large 2.8-3kg* whole free-range chicken. Each one is cut into 8 chunky pieces providing 2 thighs, 2 drumsticks and 4 bone-in breast portions.
We prepare, pack and 'fresh-freeze' our chicken in small batches in order to guarantee they arrive in their best condition. They will be delivered frozen and once unpacked can either be placed straight into the freezer, or removed from the bag and allowed to defrost thoroughly in the fridge before cooking. Once defrosted they can be treated as fresh and should be cooked within 5 days. Any meal made using the defrosted chicken can be re-frozen after cooking.
*some weight is lost during the jointing process as spine-bone and wing tips are removed to create 8 neat and well-trimmed chicken pieces.
