    • Using a whole chicken




    November 30th, 2007 at 2:04 am by A reader

    The most frugal thing that I do is to use the entire chicken.

    Legs-Fried Chicken
    Thighs-you name it
    Wings-Buffalo & BBQ
    Breats-Any & everything
    Back & Bones-Chicken stock
    Gibblets & Liver-Stuffing and Gravy

    I buy 5 or 6 whole chickens a week. I cut and bag and pop them in the freezer. Now I never have to wait for chicken to go on sale. Whole Chickens are always .69 cents a pound at Aldi.

    Cook the whole thing in the crockpot. Eat dinner; leftovers can be mixed with BBQ sauce for sandwiches, used for soup, etc; or just re-served with new sauce next night.

    I do this constantly. Everyone is happy and there is a lot of variety this way as well.
