Frequently Asked Questions

Why are chicken thighs better than breasts for most dishes?

Thighs have more intramuscular fat and collagen than breasts, which means they stay juicy and tender even when cooked at higher temperatures or for longer. They're much more forgiving — great for slow braises, tray bakes, curries and BBQ where breasts would dry out. The bone and skin also add significant flavour during cooking.

How do I cook free range chicken thighs?

Bring to room temperature for 20 minutes. Season with sea salt. Roast skin-side up at 200°C for 35–40 minutes until the skin is golden and crisp and the meat is cooked through (75°C internal at the thickest point). For BBQ: cook skin-side down over medium coals for 12–15 minutes, flip and cook for a further 10 minutes. Rest for 5 minutes before serving.

What's the difference between fresh and frozen?

Fresh thighs are delivered chilled and ready to cook — best used within 2–3 days. Frozen are identical in quality — frozen within 24 hours of processing. Defrost overnight in the fridge before cooking.

Where does the chicken come from?

From our trusted Yorkshire poultry partners, where birds are slow-grown outdoors on pasture and fed a natural diet enriched with fresh herbs and locally grown cereals.
