To much pepper

3 stars

I buy this chicken quite often and always enjoy it. I make gravy using the juices but today there was so much pepper on the chicken that’s all we could taste. Completely ruined my dinner

Not recommended

3 stars

I wanted rotisserie but they were unavailable, i tried this one but i wouldn't buy again, it says 55 mins first and it was only half cooked, the other 20 mins would definitely not have done it, i added about 30 mins on that and the skin was still soft, i too thought it had no texture, a bit rubbery, not for me.

Very disappointing in comparison with other makes

1 stars

Been buying this a while then realised how much it lacked taste and texture, Bought a cornfed chicken instead and it was much superior,

Tasteless

1 stars

Really tasteless. Had great hopes because it's roast in the bag but no taste at all. Dog liked it though.
