Chicken Leg
Chicken Leg is the complete hind limb removed from the carcass at the hip joint, comprising the thigh and drumstick joined at the knee. This substantial dark-meat cut combines tender thigh meat with the firmer drumstick and is suited to roasting, braising, barbecue cooking, marinated portions and further fabrication into separate leg cuts. The cut is distinct from a leg quarter, which includes an attached portion of back.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Chicken Leg is the complete hind limb removed from the carcass at the hip joint, comprising the thigh and drumstick joined at the knee. This substantial dark-meat cut combines tender thigh meat with the firmer drumstick and is suited to roasting, braising, barbecue cooking, marinated portions and further fabrication into separate leg cuts. The cut is distinct from a leg quarter, which includes an attached portion of back.
Quality Details
Proper leg separation should follow the hip joint without including unnecessary pelvic or back bone. Inspection focuses on skin condition where retained, clean joint cuts, minimal bruising and sound attachment between thigh and drumstick. Buyers can specify bone-in or boneless, skin-on or skinless, and weight-graded legs.
Wholesale Handling
Whole legs may be supplied as chilled or frozen portions according to the agreed order. Protective liners and appropriate layer arrangement reduce crushing and damage to the joints. Piece-weight bands, case count and any trimming of abdominal fat need to be included in the supply specification.
