Chicken butchering. Bbgawk!!

Looking for instructions on how to disassemble a chicken?  Click here.

Now that I have the basic site laid out, I’m going to start documenting the daily goings on in the kitchen.  Today, Donatella showed me how to debone a chicken, keeping all the meat in 1 piece.  Thats one, folks.  Count em with me.  One.

Firstly, Italian chickens come with some feathers still attached.  They must be cleansed by fire.  Holy, avenging angel fire.

A standard gas burner will do this time, though.

After that unpleasant task is taken care of, don your surgical gloves and mask.  I’m going in.

Scalpel!

Once all the bones are excavated, you’re left with this glorious sight.  Next step – rolling and blazing.  Errm, roasting.

    Do you know why ducks can be eaten rare, while chickens have to be cooked through? I heard that it was in the method of butchering?
