Truly free-range large jointed chicken
90-day slow-grown ‘total freedom’ free-range chicken, pre-jointed. Ideal for casseroles and stews or to make up several meals across the week.
All our chicken are reared by us on the farm within a few hundred metres of the butchery. We use slow growing breeds and provide them access to open space to scratch, forage and engage in natural behaviour. These birds live in small flocks with access to warm, dry, and naturally ventilated mobile housing and are given no antibiotics or growth hormones during their lifetime. We rear them to a minimum of 90 days, higher even than organic standards. Every stage of their life through to slaughter and processing is overseen by us on the farm ensuring they are farmed to the highest possible welfare standards.
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.
