Low quality bird this week, little & sinewy meat.
Usually a good product in both meat and taste, however this week the chicken very poor quality. Despite being a 1.5kg chicken there as barely enough meat for a four person stirfry, and what meat there was, was sinewy.
Lovely chicken. We've ordered it a number of times
Lovely chicken. We've ordered it a number of times and never had a problem. Just really pleased that Tesco has an organic range. And that the chickens aren't cooped up in cramped barns all day. Please source more organic meat tesco!!
Quality is a roll of the dice
The most startling thing to me about organic chicken is the fat that comes out of it. The fat from an organic chicken sets like gelatine rather than a disgusting grease from the standard fare. The value for money really is a random event with these birds from Tesco. Some are tender, some are really stringy, chewy garbage. The real downer is the amount of meat on them. They are so skinny it's ridiculous. It says on the packaging that it will feed 4-6 - if they're children, may be. For the price you pay for this product I can't say it's good value for money.
Great, organic chicken
Excellent quality. Great to see more organic products available from Tesco.
Dreadful Chicken.
Appalling quality, the worst chicken I have cooked in 45 years of marriage. I was dubious when it arrived as I thought it looked like a boiling chicken but thought I'd give it a whirl. It was skinny, the meat tasteless and stringy. I have eaten many organic chicken in my life, and have raised them for the table in the past but this defies description. It is possible to have an organic chicken that is tender not one that tastes as if it died of old age.
tasty organic clucks
really like the organic chickens. they do have smaller breasts and larger thighs. i cook it upside down, lots of butter ,under the skin too,like turkey so not to dry out as these chickens have clearly been exercised very well. buy just on the fact its led a better life than the barn birds, its tasty and goes a long way.
Disappointed, expected better.
This was supplied as a substitute for free range chicken in an online order. I thought I was in luck, how wrong could I be, little taste very inspid chicken, do not recommend.
Poor
Very disappointed. Despite cooking it really carefully ( it was expensive) it was tough. The taste is good but from a really big chicken I thought I would have more meat. The breasts were so small. The thighs were as tough as old boots. I certainly won’t be buying this again. Think mine must have been in a marathon.
Lovely chicken. Much less fatty than cheap battery
Lovely chicken. Much less fatty than cheap battery chicken and firmer tastier texture.
Tender and Tasty
This is the best chicken I've tasted for a long time. Very tender too. Well worth the price!
