Frequently Asked Questions

What is in the chicken essentials range?
The weekly workhorses: whole birds, breasts, thighs, wings, fillets, mince, diced and stir fry cuts, chicken burgers and chicken sausages, all from slow grown Fosse Meadows birds.
Are thighs or breasts better value?
Thighs, and it is not close. They cost less, carry more flavour, stay juicy under almost any cooking, and reheat without turning to sawdust. Breasts win only where speed and leanness matter most.
What do I do with chicken mince?
Everything beef mince does, lighter: burgers, meatballs, larb, ragù. Slow grown chicken mince has enough character to carry a dish rather than just bulk it out.
Is a whole chicken cheaper than buying cuts?
Per meal, almost always. One slow grown bird is a roast, a second dinner from the leftovers and a pot of stock from the carcass. Three meals from one purchase is the old household economics, and it still works.
