Whole Poulet Bleu Chicken

This product is not currently available.

This highly protected blue-footed bird is the American version of the prized French Poulet de Bresse; a breed French chefs consider the pinnacle of poultry. All natural, from start to finish, this heritage bird roams freely in the outdoors under the bright California sun. They're given time to mature at their own pace, reaching twice the age of the typical chicken, resulting in a gorgeously concentrated rich, chicken flavor, perfect for roasting, frying, braising and beyond.

Here's what you get:

  • 2 whole chicken Poulet Bleu, about 3 lbs each

Avian Aristocracy

These birds have a thin skin, but we think it's a good thing. Their crepe-paper thin exterior yields the perfect crackly, crisp, golden hue the next time you decide to roast them (insults excluded).

The Poulet Bleu was developed and then adapted into the American farming community from Canada in the early 1980's upon the French refusal to export the prized Bresse Bleu, it's closely linked relative. The lineage is expressed through its fiery red-cox comb and vibrant cerulean blue foot, markings of avian aristocracy. Not only is it certified antibiotic free, but it has not been genetically tampered with at any point during its ancestry, unlike most of our modern chickens.
