Spatchcock Chicken:
Our expert butchers have selected larger whole chickens with nice plump breasts & fuller legs before production to ensure they make for a meaty Spatchcock Chicken. The removal of any waste means that you get much better value for money because the weight you buy is the weight you cook.
We also have a whole Sherwood Whole Chicken that is perfect for a Sunday roast or to have for cold chicken sandwiches or to accompany a light healthy salad.
The meat itself is light in colour with a consistent texture throughout, with good-sized breasts & fuller thigh for higher meat to bone ratio. The meat will be very tender & soft with an easy bite that is not chewy for a better eating experience. These are great when feeding the family because you have the choice of light or dark meat with the leg & breast, & there is enough to feed everyone.
The Spatchcock Chicken has been cut & packed within minutes, we vacuum seal this in clear recyclable pouches to protect the meat, making them as fresh as possible before freezing to -18°C. The chicken is only 1-2°C when packed because the very low temperatures help the meat retain all its natural moisture & to ensure that the meat is as safe as possible. The clear pouches protect the Spatchcock Chicken from freezer burn, any contaminants, any damage during delivery & from drying out when in the fridge at home.
We are always looking for new packaging that can be biodegradable & keep the product safe, the clear plastic pouches we use currently are thinner & stronger which helps to reduce our carbon footprint. With our customers recycling responsibly at home it is helping towards our goal for a greener future.
Our chicken has no added water & is an excellent source of natural vitamins & minerals, & also high in protein. The local chicken farms that supply our production meet the highest European standards to ensure that quality & safety are a top priority for our products. All the chickens are monitored 24 hours per day & given a consistent diet to help them grow into large healthy birds.
The process from farm to finished product is a very humane & efficient under the strictest of conditions. The size selection of the birds before production assures that your individual portions are all of similar size when serving in your kitchen. Temperature control along with chilled filtered air in production extends the shelf life & makes the chicken much fresher when packed.
The taste & flavour of our chicken is natural & delicious for perfect results.
The process from farm to fork is designed to maximise value for money & minimise waste, with welfare & the environment top of the list. All our production facilities are BRC Approved & we are always using local farms to support the farming community in the nearby area.
The Spatchcock Chicken is easy to cook on the BBQ or in the oven. Roasting these in the oven after a light seasoning (laid out flat in a large dish) gives great results that you would expect in a restaurant. They are a more popular item for family meals when people are shopping online because our customers see the value & simplicity of these.
The BBQ scene seems to have enjoyed cooking these for many years, but now buying these means they don’t need to do any prep work as these save time.
The quality of the meat will absorb your choice of rub very easily & the skin will crisp up beautifully for an extra treat.
Please enjoy using these & don’t forget to tag us in your social media posts. #abrandisapromise
