Hen Leg Quarter
Hen Leg Quarter combines the thigh and drumstick of a mature hen with the adjoining section of the lower back. The cut contains dense dark meat, skin, bone and connective tissue, making it suitable for braising, simmered dishes, slow-cooked soups and traditional stewing applications. It is a different commercial portion from a fully trimmed whole hen leg, which does not retain the same back attachment.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Hen Leg Quarter combines the thigh and drumstick of a mature hen with the adjoining section of the lower back. The cut contains dense dark meat, skin, bone and connective tissue, making it suitable for braising, simmered dishes, slow-cooked soups and traditional stewing applications. It is a different commercial portion from a fully trimmed whole hen leg, which does not retain the same back attachment.
Quality Details
Buyers should specify the amount of back and pelvic bone included, how the hock is trimmed and the condition of the skin. Correct joint integrity, cleaning, removal of unwanted organ material and control of bruising are important cut criteria. The grade should acknowledge the anatomical and texture differences between mature hen and broiler poultry.
Wholesale Handling
Hen leg quarters may be individually arranged or bulk packed into frozen-food cartons. Case net weight and portion-size distribution should be documented for the agreed market. Cut-style consistency is important for kitchens using large batches of mature-hen meat.
