How Many?

Our free range chicken legs are perfect for casseroles, curries or slow-cooked pot roasts and sometimes easier than roasting a whole chicken.

All of our free range chicken comes from Castlemead Poultry, Heywood Farm, Radstock, near Bath. Originally started by his grandparents in 1940, Stuart is proud to be the third family generation farming at Heywood. The chickens are never given antibiotics and are slow grown, living twice the length of a supermarket bird. From early morning till nightfall, they are free to explore the fields surrounding their houses, incorporating natural goodness into their diets to complement the locally grown and milled cereals they are fed.

We like to do ours as a simple and quick version of coq au vin, with shallots, garlic, bacon lardons, a few mushrooms, chicken stock and red wine. Fry off the chicken before slow cooking for up to one hour. Or, dress them in harissa paste with a little added olive oil, a few cloves of garlic, and bake for up to forty minutes.

2 legs per pack.

Description

Free Range Chicken Legs (Bone In)

All of our free range chicken comes from Castlemead Poultry, Heywood Farm, Radstock, near Bath. Originally started by his grandparents in 1940, Stuart is proud to be the third family generation farming at Heywood.

Castlemead’s free range chickens are slow-grown and are never given antibiotics, and live twice the length of their supermarket counterparts. From early morning till nightfall, they are free to explore the fields surrounding their houses, incorporating natural goodness into their diets to complement the locally grown and milled cereals they are fed.

At night they retire to their houses for protection from the fox and a good night’s sleep.
