Giblets.. In a bag or not?

[Glos Girls]

Does anyone use a little bag for their giblets? If you do where do you get them? Or do you just put them inside the chicken w/o a bag?

I like to wrap them in parchment paper and stuff them in the cavity. A roll of paper will last a lot of chickens.

That is a great idea, does it get soggy at all? I thought of making little bags out of the Press & Seal plastic wrap. Just was not sure if it would be sanitary.

Well, it is soggy in places when placed and frozen, then soggy when defrosted. There is a lot of liquid in a chicken.

No sanitary issues that I know of. Making bags is fine if you have the time, but paper and tape is easy, cheap, and fast.
