About Our Chicken Legs
A leg quarter is the thigh and the drumstick still joined, sometimes with a piece of the back attached. It is the best-value chicken on our counter: all dark meat, a good ratio of meat to bone, plenty of skin, and a shape that fits neatly into a roasting tray or onto a grill.
One leg quarter is a generous single portion, which makes them easy to plan around - count heads, count quarters, done. They are also the most economical way to feed a large group chicken without resorting to the cheapest possible bird, which is why caterers and institutional kitchens order them from us in bulk.
Cook them like you would any dark meat: hard and long enough for the collagen to give way, with the skin exposed to direct heat at some point so it crisps. They are superb in a tray with potatoes, onions and whatever spice mix you like. See our bulk supply page for quantity pricing, or take them ready-marinated when they are in stock.
How to Cook Chicken Legs
- Roast at 200C for 45 minutes skin-side up - no turning needed.
- Slash the thigh to the bone before seasoning so the thickest part cooks with the rest.
- Superb in a one-tray bake over potatoes and onions, which catch the rendering fat.
- Charcoal: indirect for 25 minutes, then direct for colour.
- One quarter per adult is a generous portion.

Yes, and at no extra charge - it is the whole point of buying from a butcher rather than a chiller cabinet.
