Chicken Legs

Enjoy the hearty and flavourful taste of our locally sourced chicken legs, perfect for roasting, grilling, or braising.

How They’re Made

Our chicken legs are sourced from local farms committed to ethical and sustainable practices. Each leg is carefully selected and prepared by our skilled butchers to ensure premium quality and freshness.

Where They’re Butchered From

Chicken legs include both the thigh and drumstick portions, offering a combination of tender dark meat and rich flavour. This cut is versatile and ideal for various cooking methods.

Cooking Instructions

Cooking our chicken legs is straightforward and delicious:

• Roasting: Preheat your oven to 180°C (160°C fan). Season the chicken legs with salt, pepper, and your favourite herbs. Place them on a baking tray and roast for 45-50 minutes, or until the skin is golden brown and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 74°C.
• Grilling: Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Season the chicken legs with salt, pepper, and spices. Grill for 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the skin is charred and crispy, and the internal temperature reaches 74°C.
• Braising: Season the chicken legs and brown them in a heavy-bottomed pot with a little oil over medium-high heat. Add onions, garlic, carrots, and broth or wine to cover halfway up the legs. Cover and simmer on low heat for 1-1.5 hours, until the meat is tender and falling off the bone.

Storage Instructions

To maintain the freshness and quality of your chicken legs:

• Refrigerate: Store in the coldest part of your refrigerator at 1-4°C and consume within 1-2 days of purchase.
• Freeze: Wrap tightly in plastic wrap or foil, or place in a freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to 3 months. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before cooking.
