Naturally Meaty Chicken Drumsticks:
Chicken Drumsticks are always popular at Barbecues, they are ideal for simple chicken lunches, kids love them because they are inexpensive, meaty, tender to eat & always deliver great flavour. The Chicken Drumsticks have slightly coarser meat than the Chicken Thighs with the meat being a little darker.
The darker meat in chicken normally has more flavour because it is more fibrous as it is a harder working muscle. Most darker meat is caused by a High PH level, due to stress causing increased adrenaline in the bloodstream, but this is not the case in chicken. The more fibrous the meat, the better the flavour because when cooked a little lower in temperature for longer, breaks down the meat becoming very tender.
Our expert butchers have fully prepared these as ready to cook Chicken Drumsticks, saving you time & money. To keep food waste to a minimum the only piece to be thrown away after eating, is the 2 thin bones (Fibula & Tibia). There are no feathers, the skin is clean with no bruising & the meat is the same texture throughout.
When cooking anything on the bone, the flavour is always better, most noticeable in beef, the heat carried down the bone during cooking, helps to cook the chicken from the inside out for more even results once cooked. The skin on the Chicken drumsticks is a tasty additional enjoyable treat as the seasoning or Barbecue rubs will make this super delicious when cooked Crispy Golden Brown. As well as being tasty, the chicken skin protects the meat from becoming dry or burnt.
The texture of the meat is consistent because of the quality of the locally sourced chickens, but also because no water is added during production. Check out this link to see how some factories are adding water to their chicken for pure profit because a pound of chicken is more expensive than a pound of water! Adding water to chicken ruins the texture, the taste is not natural, & the texture is horrible.
The Chicken Drumsticks weigh approximately 110-150-grams with 6-7 pieces per packet, giving around 1-Kilo per pack. These are a great size for your freezer& convenient for making midweek meals when you are busy. Each pack of Chicken Drumsticks will feed 3 adults or 4 children easily.
When buying chicken online you need to have great quality at a competitive price. Making sure the Drumsticks are fully trimmed before packing ensures you to get best value for money. The best way to save money when buying meat is getting better quality & less waste giving you more meat for your money.
The health benefits of eating quality chicken are that it increases energy, & is high in protein levels, perfect when doing physical exercise. A balanced diet requires vitamins & minerals daily, & chicken is an excellent source of these, making it an affordable way to get your daily intake.
The packaging we use for the chicken drumsticks & all our chicken is a thinner stronger recyclable clear plastic pouch & we are trying to create less impact on the environment through multipacks. Through our customers recycling responsibly at home or commercially, this helps to complete the recycling process of our packaging, also reducing the Carbon Footprint.
All our chicken is produced under the strictest conditions where hygiene & temperature control are paramount. Before any cutting, all chicken is bought to a temperature of 1-3°c & weight graded to ensure that all portions are close to equal size. We pack these so you can freeze them without the risk of spoiling the meat, & when you are bringing the meat up to room temperature, they don’t dry out.
Please ensure that you “Recycle the packaging from your Chicken Drumsticks Responsibly”
All our production plants are BRC / IFS approved & operate under the strictest of conditions. Constantly supervised by on site health vets to ensure all cutting & hygiene processes are adhered to. The temperature controlled cutting rooms with filtered air means we can reduce natural bacteria growth & produce safer products with a longer shelf life. The process from farm to finished product is a very humane & efficient.
Sourcing all our chicken locally to the production plant enables us to have access to good quality chicken with sustainable supplies. Having built up relationships with local chicken farmers, the chickens supplied very consistent in size & quality, & able to meet our demands for higher volumes when needed.
All the local farms that supply production meet the highest European standards as quality & safety are our main priorities when buying our chicken. The chickens are checked & monitored 24 hours a day in temperature-controlled environments. The Chicken Sheds are very large & well ventilated so that the chickens have room to move about. With a controlled diet the chickens grow to healthy sized birds that produce a good yield.
Making family meals, buffet finger food, enjoying a Barbecue at home, event catering, or producing restaurant quality dinners with Chicken Drumsticks, they are always a winner! We even created our famous Sherwood Chicken Lollipops from these drumsticks, these are further prepared to strip off one end to expose the bone for “Dipping Style Finger Food “.
Enjoying great food has always been a social thing, whether it’s an intimate steak night dinner for 2 or a family Sunday roast or even an outdoor celebration food festival (like many Barbecue events all over the world), great food should be shared!
