Bargain buy chicken quarters offer value at price
The article advises buying 10 pound bags of leg thigh chicken quarters for about 25 cents a pound, then repackaging for storage. It notes the pieces are large slightly older birds with extra fat to trim, and recommends washing, freezing in quart bags, and slow cooking or stewing to maximize flavor and texture, even after freezing.
