Pastured Chickens

We have a new batch of pastured chickens!

We are so excited to have them in the farm store! We roasted one for ourselves & are very pleased with the results! So yummy!

These are great for a Thanksgiving meal esp. if you donโ€™t have enough family to eat a whole turkey!

Be sure to grab one the next time you are in the farm store! You can preorder them here!


Roasting a Chicken

Needing some easy instructions on how to roast a chicken? Itโ€™s really very simple. I have attached a video showing how itโ€™s done.

See this content in the original post

Here are the basic instructions:

Place your chicken, breast up in your roaster pan,

pour 2 Tbsp. Apple Cider vinegar over the chicken,

Add 1/2 tsp. turmeric, 1 tsp. salt, 2 bay leaves, & several rosemary & thyme sprigs

Add veggies (optional); I used carrots, an onion, & 2 cloves garlic๐Ÿง…๐Ÿฅ•๐Ÿง„

Add 4-6 cups water to your roaster

Take a spatula & loosen the skin from the meat; scoop in several Tbsp. raw butter between the skin & meat, to keep the breast meat soft.๐Ÿงˆ

Bake uncovered at 350 for 1 1/2 hours. Cover and bake for another 2 hours. Baste every 45-60 min.

Place on a platter & serve! ๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿณ
