Packington Free Range whole chicken, apx 1.8kg.

We still remember how chicken used to taste when we were kids, and it’s a standard we’re committed to bringing back!

This is how chicken used to taste before intensive farming introduced breeds with no flavour. It’s perfect centrepiece for Sunday lunch or family dinner. Check out our recipes for inspiration.

Packington Free Range Chickens

We have bought Packington chickens for many years from a local supplier, unfortunately, this relationship ceased post Covid. However, we did find that it was possible to obtain chickens directly from Packington and have been more than pleased the service. The chickens are delivered, over night, in a well insulated box with freezer blocks and are in a good condition when they arrive.
First rate 5 star service and product.

This is a glorious roast chicken with real richness. The skin is golden and crisp, and the leg meat in particular is gorgeously moist and full of flavour. The breast meat is tender and has a firm texture that would be wonderful smothered in gravy. A real treat of a roast.

This is a beautifully presented chicken. The flavour of this chicken is rich, full and the judges could tell this chicken has had a good life, from both the texture and flavour depth.
