1/2 Chicken
Small Farm–Raised 1/2 Chicken
Our small farm–raised whole chickens come from birds grown with care on pasture and raised by hand on Berkshire Creek Farm. They’re allowed to forage, exercise, and eat a wholesome, non-GMO diet, producing meat with superior flavor, a pleasing texture, and naturally tender breast meat.
What you get
½ Chicken, typically 1–2 lbs (weight may vary)
Pasture exposure and room to roam
No antibiotics or growth-promoting additives
Flavor & cooking These birds have a rich, full chicken flavor and hold up well to many preparations: roast whole with herbs and citrus, spatchcock for quicker even roasting, smoke low and slow, or braise for fall-off-the-bone meat. The skin crisps beautifully when roasted at high heat; the meat stays moist thanks to healthy, active birds.
Simple roasting method
Preheat oven to 425°F. Pat chicken dry.
Season cavity with salt and pepper and stuff with halved lemon and a few herb sprigs (thyme or rosemary). Rub skin with oil
