I think The Chicken is God’s Most Useful Critter...EVER! :)
Depending upon where you live, those Rotisserie Chickens at Costo, Walmart, your local deli, etc. are usually a good deal, providing plenty of meals and then Chicken Stock, too.
I’m waiting for the price to go back down - they’re running $8 now at my Piggly Wiggly deli - NOT a great deal. ;)
Yes, I frequently purchase the rotisserie chickens and we get two meals and a sandwich out of them. Kroger’s chickens run small. We also purchase Publix fried chicken which is much cheaper than a box of Popeyes and better tasting.
I saw an article the other day that said instead of purchasing rib eye steaks buy a rib roast and slice the steaks yourself and its way cheaper. I’m going to check that out.
