Easy Way to Serve Half Chicken

posted on

June 8, 2023

I am not a fan of grilling or smoking whole birds. The main reason is that serving them is so difficult. My preference is to use half chickens, and here's why....

A whole chicken is harder to part out when it's blazing hot off the grill.  Sure, I can wear gloves and bust out my boning knife etc... but who's got time for all that?   In this video, I grilled up two half chickens for all of our lunch at the farm.  We did not have plates, forks or knives --- this was seriously "finger-lick'n" chicken!   

There are nine-million videos out there telling you how to COOK a chicken, but Erin and I are most interested in making it EASY for you to serve your family and friends.  This is the EASIEST way we have found to make that happen. Hope it helps you folks at home!

We Built This Before AI

Twenty years ago, Erin and I had to fight through conflicting books, nutritional dogma, and a food system that told us eggs were bad and margarine was healthy. ZOE Farms was born from that journey—and while AI is now helping families cut through the noise faster, our mission has remained unchanged: doing the real work of raising food with integrity, not chasing marketing trends.
