Local Favorites - boneless stuffed chicken

[saneric38]

If you're in south Louisiana or Mississippi, you're probably familiar with Rouses. I have really enjoyed the boneless suffed chicken. I get the dirty rice or jambalaya stuffing. Price has been 12.99, but I haven't been in a few weeks. I have one still in the freezer. I justify the cost as reasonable because I wouldn't de-bone and the stuffing effort and cost.The last one I pellet smoked with a little Killer Hogs AP and a little Meat Chuch Honey BBQ. So delicious. Do you have a local grocery that has some favorites?

My question to you would be, why wouldn’t you de-bone. There was a time when I wouldn’t cuz didn’t know how. When I learned how simple & easy it was a no brainer cost wise. Same goes for stuffings & marinades. My butcher is & the stupid market are always tryin to sell that stuff for a few dollars a pound more. To me, & maybe me only, it is learnin the cookin process & the art.

Yea HEB carries some of those products plus some other brands. It's just so bloody expensive that why I try to make my own.

Pepin shows how to debone a chicken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ku5p1CcGn70

[RobertC]

I've used his technique to debone chickens, turkeys, and a duck. Pay close attention to where and how he holds his hands -- almost any other place or any other way you hold your hands makes it harder. He is very very good at teaching.

[FireMan]

Yes RobertC , he is the good standard in culinary education.

[Troutman]

Yep that's my man. He also in another video shows you how to properly tie a chicken. Master chef.
