Cooking with Chicken Drumsticks

The beauty of chicken drumsticks is their adaptability to be used in a myriad of recipes. Whether baked, grilled, or slow-cooked, here are some general cooking tips for our free range chicken drumsticks:

 Baking: Preheat your oven to 200°C. Season the free range chicken drumsticks as desired and place them on a baking tray. Bake for about 45 minutes or until fully cooked.

Grilling/BBQ: Ensure your grill/BBQ is preheated. Season the drumsticks and place them on the grill, turning occasionally for even cooking. This should take about 25-30 minutes.

Slow-Cooking: Perfect for curries and stews. Brown the drumsticks first in a pan, then transfer to a slow cooker with your choice of sauce or broth. Let it simmer until the meat is tender and fully cooked. 

Storing and Handling Bird & Barrow Drumsticks

To ensure you get the best out of our chicken drumsticks, it is essential to store and handle them properly. Please see below for some tips. 

Refrigeration: If you plan to cook the drumsticks within a couple of days, refrigerate them at temperatures below 4°C.

Freezing: For longer storage, you can freeze the drumsticks on the day of purchase. Store below -18 degrees Celsius. Once thawed, cook within 24 hours and don’t refreeze.

Hygiene: Always wash your hands and equipment in hot soapy water after handling raw chicken. Use separate kitchen tools and surfaces for raw and cooked foods to avoid cross-contamination.
