Great for adults and kids alike, and one of the most versatile everyday chicken options you can keep in the freezer.

Waitoa accredited for quality and animal welfare. Free-range from New Zealand. Frozen at peak freshness in 400g packs.

Suggested Preparation

Thaw overnight in the refrigerator. Pat the skin dry for better crisping. Season generously with salt, pepper, and your choice of spices or marinade. Roast in a preheated oven at 180°C for 35–45 minutes, turning once halfway. Target 74°C internal temperature — juices should run clear. Also excellent on the BBQ or in an air fryer. Very forgiving — ideal for beginners and batch cooking.

Perfect Wine Pairing

The juicy, savoury flavour of free-range chicken drumsticks pairs beautifully with an elegant Pinot Noir — the 2020 Devotus Aprentis Pinot Noir, available from our sister store My Wine Man — a refined Pinot with red cherry, earthy complexity, and silky tannins that lift the natural flavour of roasted free-range chicken beautifully.
