Add more value and convenience to your meal preparation. This product is for those who are interested in making Broth / Stock. Be advised: Convenience comes with extra cost.
If you are planning to make Broth / Stock, then the Back and Carcass are a good base to start with. For the additional flavor, nutrients, and collagen, we suggest adding some Necks and Feet.
Use 1 lbs of Chicken pieces and parts to obtain roughly 1 Quart of thick gelatin like Broth / Stock. However, we recommend using enough water to produce 2 Quarts. Plenty of information and recipes on the web about making Broth / Stock, but If you have questions, don't hesitate to give us a call.
We use both Cornish Cross and Freedom Rangers for packages of Backs / Carcass.
As you can imagine, beyond the basic Chicken processing, it requires more time for us to cut up and package individual pieces and parts. The extra cost is simply to cover the extra time required for us to do this value-added convenience for you. In general, we have very little time for this value-added option and produce a limited supply.
In addition to what they find on the pasture, the Chickens used for pieces and parts, are supplemented with Ben's Hens Standard Feed. See the Feed page for more information about Feed.
