To butcher and pluck a chicken (and then cook it and eat it, etc.) Please note that this is a dream that sits alongside those other dreams like "build my own log cabin from scratch" and "completely refit current house to run entirely on wind and solar"--i.e., I'm not exactly out scouting chickens right now.<BR/><BR/>I love those juicy chicken thighs the most--though if you cook a breast ju-u-u-st long enough and not too long, it's juicy too.Melospizahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02967972017593146047noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276521619492097822.post-52714241157987950832008-04-16T10:38:00.000-06:002008-04-16T10:38:00.000-06:00So, I don't actually EAT chicken, but I've cut up ...So, I don't actually EAT chicken, but I've cut up plenty of them... all part of that frugal shopper thing! It doesn't bother me at all. Homer, on the other hand (who does eat chicken) wants no part of cutting or even knowing that it has been cut up. My kids like the drumsticks (I think every kid does), Homer is definitely a breast man.LoriDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07646658618955664778noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276521619492097822.post-20795844307284948332008-04-16T09:55:00.000-06:002008-04-16T09:55:00.000-06:00"One step further removed from processed food.

CHICKEN! What? <BR/><BR/>Now that I have had the wings at George's Place in Naperville though... wings are my favorite. <BR/><BR/>My conversion from (chicken) breasts to wings began four years ago when my brother introduced me to Wingstop (a chain eatery), which has great wings. Then I had the wings of George's Place. Best wings ever. One might say they are 'clucking awesome'. If one is a total dork.<BR/><BR/>So, if you are ever in Chicagoland, go to George's Place in Naperville. Get their flaming cheese- Saganaki(sp?), and try all the wing flavors. Sooo awesome. <BR/><BR/>Wingstop is good too, if you have not been. They are all over the U.S. Google it to find one near you. Jeez I sound like the Man...all touting consumerism and such.<BR/><BR/>And what a long comment. I guess I am more passionate about chicken than I knew.Animanoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11610944006859589421noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276521619492097822.post-61717652918011400212008-04-16T08:43:00.000-06:002008-04-16T08:43:00.000-06:00Good for you, man!

Cutting up a whole chicken - I'd have no idea where to start.<BR/><BR/>I used to think wings were worthless, then I got into Buffalo Wild Wings, but I usually like the breast or thigh. Either white or dark meat is fine with me. And drumsticks are repulsive to me for some reason. Maybe because any time I go to a street festival, there's all these guys gnawing on giant turkey drumsticks, which grosses me out.Pickles and Dimeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14552386798256895855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276521619492097822.post-18827714695242783932008-04-16T07:41:00.000-06:002008-04-16T07:41:00.000-06:00I love dark meat as white meat is too dry.

I rarely buy anything but the whole chicken, but I will say, you made me look at the cutting up process in a whole new light.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10242720787149022301noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-276521619492097822.post-27430257208027817832008-04-16T07:03:00.000-06:002008-04-16T07:03:00.000-06:00AWESOME!

How did you know how to do it?<BR/><BR/>My mom can cut up a whole chicken in like 90 seconds. It's unbelievable. <BR/><BR/>I'm a dark meat girl all the way.

But before I went out, I put a bunch of chicken parts in the oven to bake. What a weird chicken this was -- it had three drumsticks and two breasts! No wings! <BR/><BR/>Anyway... I came home to find out that one daughter ate ALL three drumsticks! <BR/><BR/>Today she told me "I'm something of a devil when it comes to chicken, myself". This from a four year old!<BR/>She had an impish smile on her face.<BR/><BR/>Hmm... so um, yeah, the drumsticks have a certain appeal for the little devils around here.<BR/><BR/>:)Pannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02153295867807635375noreply@blogger.com
