Free Range Chicken

We did our first butterflied chicken tonight.[p]It was a free range chicken from an Amish farm in Indiana. We seasoned it with a mixture called "Fox Point Seasoning" from The Spice House in Milwaukee, WI. It is a light shallot and herb blend.[p]We liked the butterfly technique (I remembered I read the exchange on GFW's site) because it enables one to get spices under the skin easier, but liked the free range chicken better. This had so much more flavor to it than a $1/pound manufactured one from the supermarket.[p]Let me encourage everyone to buy good, fresh, local meats. This will improve your egging more than anything other than this forum. :-)[p]Fritz

    Fritz, totally correct and on the money. IMHO anyway. Others may argue the point.
    As per a postof mine down below..the two birds I did today were locally farm raise "free range" birds, home cleaned and dressed.

    BTW..I have my order in for half a "free range" Angus for next year. Plus some of these chicken mates...heeeeeyaaaa.
