Missouri Experiment Station Suggests Freezing Chickens for Freshness
Research from the Missouri Experiment Station shows that thinly dressed chickens stored in ice retain freshness and flavor. Best results come from healthy fat fryers weighing 24 to 4 pounds, with 10 to 16 week old birds preferred. Surplus cockerels from farms are suitable. After dressing, meat is cut up, cooled, packed in waxed cartons with water to cover, and frozen to form an ice casing.
