maddmaxx ★ Posted January 2 Share #1 Posted January 2 Is much more tasty than non airchilled. It's tender and contains less water than regular chicken. You get more chicken per lb which sort of makes up for the extra cost. We cooked up an air chilled roaster for brunch/early lunch today. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maddmaxx ★ Posted January 3 Author Share #6 Posted January 3 1 hour ago, Airehead said: How is it different? As part of processing chicken, the birds have to be cooled to a certain temperature to ensure food safety. This can be done in one of two ways: immersion in cold water or air-chilling. The most popular method in the U.S. has been to water-chill birds. However, a handful of chicken processors have embraced the air-chilled method, which has been used in Europe for more than 40 years. During air-chilling, each bird is individually chilled over the course of about three hours. Birds are moved into carefully monitored temperature-controlled chambers where purified air cools them. The air-chilling process results in several standout benefits — namely great-tasting chicken. It produces tender, succulent meat and keeps the flavor intact. Some say air-chilling is the key to the making the perfect roast chicken with extra-crispy skin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
