Whole roasting chickens are the handiest and most useful thing in your freezer. Roast one up on a weekend for a special occasion dinner or on a midweek day to have handy meat for quick lunches and busy weekend meals. These birds are raised outdoors and activity is encouraged, resulting in incredible meat that doesn't shrink or dry out when cooking. Roasting these a little longer than typical just results in more tenderness. 

These birds are $5.75/lb so final price is calculated upon weighing. Orders are placed with a deposit of $25-40/bird, depending on the size you select. The final balance is due upon delivery. 

Half roasting chickens are so quick and easy and versatile. They have all the perks of a roasted chicken but in half the time, half the storage space, and half the thawing time. We often yank one of these out of the freezer for those times when you need something quick, maybe a bit fancier, or don't want leftovers for days. These birds are raised outdoors and activity is encouraged, resulting in incredible meat that doesn't shrink or dry out when cooking. Roasting these a little longer than typical just results in more tenderness. We have found that we get a better quality meat when we let the birds grow to maturity than to harvest them at a younger age and lower body weight. A typical half roaster will average between 4-5 lbs. 

These birds are $6.33/lb so final price is calculated upon weighing. Orders are placed with a deposit of $22/package. The final balance is due upon delivery. 

Chicken breasts are one of the most versatile items to have on hand. These are dense, large, and juicy with very little fat on them. They don't shrink when cooking because they haven't had anything done to "plump them up". The whole chicken is simply cut into pieces, slipped into a bag, vacuum sealed, and frozen. We do leave the skin on these for those that want that extra bit of goodness. 

The boneless variety are 2 breasts per package and are priced at $10.35/lb. The bone in and skin on are $9.85/lb. Both have a deposit of $18/package and the final balance is due upon delivery. 

Evergreen Alley Chicken Thighs are absolutely delicious. They are bone in and skin on for every bit of delicious goodness. Moist and juicy doesn't come close to describing these. Useful for so many recipes, on the BBQ, in the oven, in a pan, in a soup pot, they are as versatile as they are good. 

These are packaged 4/package and sold for $9.20/lb. Orders are placed with a $18/package deposit and the balance is due upon delivery. 

It wouldn't be a game day, festive celebration, or party without wings done up one way or another. These are plump and meaty, perfect for over the fire, grill, or in the oven and roasted. They can be added to soup stocks for a little extra flavour and meat when you need it. These are not the skimpy wings you need mountains of to be satiated, these hit the spot. 

These are packaged 6/package and priced at $6.33/lb. Orders are placed with a $10/package deposit and the balance due upon delivery.  

This age old favourite is a standard. Super handy for those meals that you want to roll up your sleeves and dig right in. These drumsticks are large and meaty, able to handle a roasting in the oven or over a fire. Cook them long and slow to get that fall-off-the-bone experience. We love these with a shake and bake style coating or oven baked in an easy sweet and sour sauce. A roasted skin on gives a fantastic flavour to this cut of meat. 

They come packaged 4/package and are priced at $8.05/lb. Orders are placed with a deposit of $15/package and the balance is due upon delivery. 

While this isn't something you typically find in your grocery's freezers, it is something that every cook and parent needs on hand. There is nothing that chicken soup can't fix, and hardly a recipe around that doesn't call for chicken stock. You can buy stock easily enough, but finding a flavourful stock that you are comfortable with the ingredients of is another thing altogether. A carcass includes the neck, wing tips, and main body of the bird with the breasts, thighs, wings, and drumsticks removed. 

Chicken bones are super easy to prepare. For great colour and flavour put them in the oven, roast them at 350 til they are to temperature. Then put them in a pot with lots of water and boil til the meat falls off the bone. Cool, and separate the meat, bones, and broth. Discard the bones (safely away from the family dog, cooked chicken bones are Not safe for dogs). We sometimes freeze the meat and broth together for easy soup, just add veggies, noodles, rice, whatever you desire or have on hand. Other times we leave them separated, the meat is super easy for any chicken based recipe. 

The average carcass is a couple pounds, and yields about 6-7oz meat. They are priced at $2.88/lb, orders are placed with a $5.00/package deposit and the balance is due upon delivery.
