Our chicken, turkey and game products are selected for us by Clarke Meats in Huddersfield, a Yorkshire firm who have been specialising in supplying poultry since 1995. Like us, they work with local farms to ensure they can provide us with consistently good quality birds.

Chicken is a huge favourite with many of our customers who like to keep a balanced diet with some lighter, white meat. From whole grain fed chickens to plump breast fillets and chicken legs we offer a range of options for all your traditional chicken recipes.

Check out our Chicken Cushion for a really tasty meal for the family where we’ve done the fiddly work for you, de-boning and filling a double breast of chicken with sage and onion stuffing and wrapping it in our own cured streaky bacon.

And the Spatchcock Chicken with salt and pepper marinade is pretty special too. Spatchcock is an old 18th century Irish word derived from ‘dispatch the cock’. The backbone has been removed so that it can be opened out flat so you can cook the whole chicken more quickly – grilling or frying it rather than oven roasting.

And of course, chicken soup is traditionally – and scientifically proven to be – great for invalids. It’s a palatable source of heathy calories with other nutritional benefits for a healthy immune system from the phytonutrients in the added vegetables. Chicken is rich in carnosine which is thought to reduce congestion in the respiratory tract to help cold and flu symptoms while the gelatine, glucosamine and chondroitin from the boiled carcase bones acts as an anti-inflammatory for other ailments.
