Hi. I recently had 21 meaties and i took them for proccessing yesterday. The people that did it were amazingly fast. Done in 25 min if that. I was supprised on how much gunk was still inside them though when i got home that i was able to scrap out with a spoon. But im kinda picky about that. The neck and part of the chicken the glands are in were still on the bird also. I had read that you need to take the glads off or it gives the meat a weird tast.
Do you cut the chicken glands off? Or leave them?
My other question is, After i freezer bag them can i still leave the chickens in the fridge for 1-2 days for the meat to "relax" or will it deffeat the purpose if i freezer bag them first? And when you freezer bag them do you freeze them first then bag them or bag them first? I freezer baged some and the juices were being sucked out so it made me question if i should have frozen them.
Any advice would be great
