Part of our wider fresh poultry range, leg quarters remain one of the most versatile dark meat options for commercial kitchens.

Why Leg Quarters Remain a Kitchen Staple?

Dark meat cuts are valued for their:

• Higher natural juiciness
• Stronger flavour profile
• Better performance in marinades
• Tolerance to longer cooking times

This makes them especially suitable for:

• Peri-peri and BBQ grill menus
• Oven-roasted plated meals
• Curries and slow-cooked dishes
• Catering trays and event service
• Value meal combinations

The combined thigh and drumstick structure also offers strong visual appeal for plated presentations.

Operational Advantages

• Consistent 250-300g Portions: Supports predictable cooking times and accurate cost calculations.
• High-Yield Cut: Maximises usable meat per portion, improving overall margin control.
• Approx. 8kg Foodservice Pack: Designed for batch cooking and high-demand environments.
• Menu Versatility: Adapts easily across casual dining, takeaway, catering, and street food concepts.

Build a Balanced Poultry Menu

For operators offering multiple chicken formats, consider pairing with:

• Inner fillet – 10kg for tender strip applications
• Inner fillet (finest) – 10kg for premium menu items
• Flat wings – 10kg for appetisers and sharing plates
• Whole chicken for in-house portioning flexibility

This approach allows you to optimise both premium and value-driven menu sections.

Storage Instructions
