MM,

I saw that you wanted to see 3-4 kilo chickens.

I may have some growers of our free ranged, grass fed chickens who are able to to meet that demand.

For those who want to try to raise their own grass fed, pasture poulty, we have imported chicks available. By Oct 2007, island born chicks will be ready.

After tasting real chicken, you may not want to touch the growth boosted ones :)

thanks for enlightening me everyone. uh aridelros, thanks for the esoteric explanation but i’ll go with ted’s and pinky’s.

the state of kentucky explanation is much more plausible than any of the genetically engineered multiple-legged chicken stories ive heard.

Mrs. A, I stand corrected, you are right Pamora is sold at PHP300+ a kilo, Santis seems to have mis-charged me (in my favor, a rare treat) for my chickens! And I just saw larger ones at Terry’s Selection on Pasong Tamo, chickens of up to 2.1 kilos even! Yay, now I can make a really nice sized roast chicken during the holidays…

I like the stuffing it whole version, but if you want to be in between, then prick a few holes in the lemon with a sharp knife… the fragrance and flavor from one whole lemon in a chicken cavity really shines through…

MM, I do have a question, from your experience, do you really have to quarter the lemon like in the citrus and ginger recipe or is it okay if you just stuff it whole like in your lemon and thyme recipe? I’ve been wondering if stuffing it whole will still render the same flavor…

good lord, i never thought chickens would warrant so many comments! :) here’s mine: one of the reasons why chickens here puny (besides the over medicated chickens) is bec chicken subcontractors are required to produce small chickens–less than 1kilo. magnolia, purefoods and the like want the consumer to feel that they are paying less for the whole chicken they are purchasing. pero in reality, the chicken they’re getting is so small, not really cheaper.

bigger chickens are rejected by the chicken selling companies kasi it will be more expensive weight-wise compared to the small chicken.

MrsA, PHP400 sounds like a lot! I'm not sure now how much I Paid for mine but I don't think it was more than PHP180 a kilo. At any rate it should be worth it. I also have other recipes for roast chicken in the archives. Here is a link and another link for your convenience. And here is a post on turbo chicken as well... Good luck with your Pamora!

Hi MM ! Congratulations on the EB success– would love to join the next one! I saw pamora chicken being sold in Unimart in greenhills — today they had one that was almost 2 kilos! But at a hefty price too P500 +. As they had only a few left, i bought the smallest ( 1.5 k ) for around P400 to try with the recipe you mentioned above. Wish me luck
