Product Description
Packington Free Range Chicken:
At Packington Free Range we firmly believe that what is good for the animals
and the land will naturally be good for us and better for our customers.
This is the philosophy of our great grandfather before us and we believe passionately in provenance, sustainable and ethical farming which fuels our drive to create an environmentally sound and welfare orientated farm,
This see's all of the farm we look after in environmental schemes, which helps encourage the biodiversity on our farm, in fact a RSPCA survey on our farm in 2012 showed that the number of different bird species had increased by 300% over a 5 year period!
We have also installed solar panels to help further reduce our carbon footprint.
All of this allows us to continue to farm the land here, in Staffordshire, for generations to come.
It's this simple philosophy that enables us to produce the most succulent, richly flavoured meat, often lost in today's intensive farming methods. We know you'll enjoy it.
Rob and Alec Mercer.

Great quality, favourite for roasting
I am a great fan of Packington chicken, always has great taste and good quality; I have roasted one every weekebd for almost a year, reliable and excellent. A staple in my orders.

such a pity
I was hopeful this chicken would be fab. It was not completely plucked, lots of feathers on the legs. The biggest disappointment was the flavour, there wasnt any! I roast as usual with veg for our dinner last night. (Im a good home cook so I knew it wasnt me) Everybody remarked how tasteless it was. My son asked if Id bought a badly treated chicken from Asda. Do not recommend.

Would have given 10 Stars if I could!
I am not a big chicken eater but always try to buy free-range. This bird was delicious and even I enjoyed it. Followed the cooking guide on the packaging and it was so moist and flavoursome. Produced a lovely bowl of fat for cooking our roast potatoes in next time. My husband and son enjoyed it cold the next day too. We all agreed that if you had this on Christmas Day you would not have been disappointed.

usually good - but not this time!
We usually really like these chickens but this one was full of gory-looking brown stuff and no one wanted to eat that. Went straight into the bin, so thats £14 wasted.
Recipes

Pesto Roast Chicken with Garlic and Parmesan
Roast chicken is always a crowd pleaser and this recipe has an Italian twist with Sacla' Classic Basil Pesto, fresh lemon thyme and plenty of Parmesan. Delizioso!

so good
Best chicken I have had in a very long time. Got it in the flash sale for a bargain price. Roasted and it was delicious and moist. Plenty meat. Will buy again
