A lot of folks have asked what to make with a whole chicken, and while I am a big proponent of using the whole animal - and I have sent out many whole chicken recipes - I understand that for many recipes, you may only want certain cuts of chicken. However, it can be more economical to purchase a chicken whole, so it is always good to know how to cut one up to get the part that you wish to use and save the remaining parts for another time.
The two most crucial components to cutting up a whole chicken are a sharpened knife and a cut glove. A close third is your drink of choice - in my case, a vodka tonic! ha!
I always start with the wings, followed by the rear quarters, the breasts, and finally, the tenders. I know for many, cutting up a whole chicken can seem intimidating. It was for me initially, as well, but I am here to tell you if I can do it, so can you!
Our self-serve, on-farm store is fully stocked with both whole and parted broiler chickens, as well as whole, pastured turkey and eggs, so don’t forget to stop by and stock your freezer.
Pour yourself a beverage, grab your chicken, a cutting board, knife, and cut glove, and give it a go! Let me know if you tried this and how it turned out!
One of my favorite parts of owning a farm that offers unique horseback riding adventures is all the special milestones that our guests have celebrated with us and our animals. I love being the place that stands out in their memory when they think of some of their happiest times.
We have had engagements, weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, Valentine's Days, Mother's Days - even a long-awaited divorce finalization (hey, anything can be a celebration with the right mindset!) - all commemorated here. I often think back on them and get that warm fuzzy feeling knowing that we played a part.
If you have ever tried to make hard-boiled eggs with farm-fresh eggs, you know what a nightmare it can be to peel them without taking a large amount of the white with the shell! This is because when they are so fresh, the inner membrane is still intact and attached to the shell. Never fear, I am here to show you how to get a perfectly-peeled egg every time!
Buying a whole or half share of an animal can seem intimidating. Aside from, “where will I store it?” you are likely also wondering, “how will I cook with it?” Don’t worry - we are here to help!
For me, there are three side dishes that make the meal. Without green bean casserole, mashed potatoes, and my great-grandmother's stuffing, its just not Thanksgiving. The stuffing is always a hit, so I’m always tasked with bringing it to the family gathering. This means I make extra for leftovers, so I never complain!
If you’re looking for a comforting, rich, mouth-watering stuffing recipe, look no further. I got you!
Talk about comfort food. This recipe is rich and warm and a wonderful dish for a cool, fall evening.
