Wow that's a great price. Those poor chickens. LOL It is my fave meat also. I was going to say
white meat, but I almost never eat red, so... and I do like fish, but eat a lot more chicken by far.
Natural rotisserie chickens here go for around thirteen dollars I think. I'm not sure any more because I stopped buying
them. At the Super Store you used to be able to get a cooked chicken for under ten, but I never saw one for five.
Now everything is more expensive but it was just too difficult for me to eat a whole bird by myself.
For cooking, I prefer buying boneless these days. I don't like using my oven as much any more either (haha),
preheating time and cooking time is usually close to at an hour after that, so I just fry in a non-stick pan
with a little bit of oil and it can takes about forty minutes. You don't need to add salt. I add pepper,
Rosemary, and lots of garlic powder. Onion powder too if I have it. Experiment with your herbs.
Oregano is nice on chicken, basil too. And sage of course. But I keep it simple.

Nah, I am too lazy/low maintenance for marinating though I may buy pre-marinated
if the chickies be on sale. The other part of marinating is having the sauce, and buying
sauce means using it up in a timely manner, and stuff like that just usually mostly ends
up in the garbage because I cannot use it up quickly enough... so I just don't buy it.
Same with a lot of things, even flour any more: it goes bad before I can use it all up.
I let garlic powder be my coating.

Good deal!
I wish I could eat chicken. Although I like the taste,my body literally rejects it. Pork goes on sale at Krogers regularly, but I'm concerned about the vaccines they injected into them.
I need the cholesterol so I eat beef liver and all the fat I can. I'm finishing up a frozen turkey that was on sale at .99¢/ pound. It was about the only thing at a fair price at giant eagle. I wish I could buy others 🦃 at that price right now. It's very tasty. I eat the bone ends and marrow too. That helps restore what is lost in wear and tear on the joints. I can feel the difference. Crock pots and pressure cookers are good for getting most goodness from the meat. If you cook them long enough the connective tissues, joints, ligaments, and tendons break down enough to eat. They are as good for rebuilding your own.

Jacko,
wait until there's a deal then fill up your freezer , use only half the chicken a meal. boil the bones for chicken soup or broth for the next day. but the number 1 money saver is raising your own chicken one summer we had The ross broiler breed at the end of the season you could fit 40 chickens into a deep freezer, the second is going semi-vegetarian a few days per week. that saves a lot too and it's good for your health.

I love, love, love eating chicken livers, but I can't seem to get into the taste of beef livers. How do you make beef liver palatable to you? Or do you just have a taste for it? Also, have you tried lengua (beef tongue)? Sorry for all my beefy questions 
I know what you mean. Enjoyed the turkey liver yesterday with beans/ rice.
You might want to try calf liver once or twice. It's milder tasting and still has more vitamins and minerals than most vegetables. I think it's best cooked with onions and add crushed garlic at the very end. It sometimes tastes like a tender steak that way when just lightly cooked, medium. Too much and it dries out and gets tough . I only fry in animal fat or coconut oil. Otherwise, it can be added to any dish towards the end . Salt, pepper and a variety of spices are good with it. I've been using rosemary and heating it first since it takes a little longer to soften and cook. It is one of the Lord's good heart medicines too. I think you said you like hot peppers? That is likewise great for the heart and is a flavor enhancer. Habanero with the seeds removed.

I have had beef liver with onions. I'd rather eat Vegemite lol. But I haven't tried it cooked in coconut oil or with rosemary. I love rosemary. Those two additions might help my taste buds!
It might have been someone else that likes hot peppers. I'm more of a mild person myself, I'll kick things up to medium on occasion. I'm not necessarily opposed to heat on the rare occasion, but it depends on my mood.
I do appreciate you taking the time to answer! I probably won't be doing a taste test video or anything like that, but it'd be interesting to try beef liver using your helpful tips!

Beef tongue is one of my favorites.
😛😋🐄
Beefheart used to be one of my favorites as a boy. I had older friends who introduced me to Captain Beef heart, blues and a whole bunch of old bands. Frank Zappa used to team up with him for a while . I have absolutely no idea what genre of music this is, but the talk about food reminded me of this crazy music. 😄

I really want to try beef tongue! I can't find it in the stores around here, but I think the nearby Mexican restaurant had lengua tacos.
I've got calf liver on my grocery list!
I love old bands. I was listening to a playlist of old bands earlier...Rare Earth and others. People had neat threads back then. And hats too. And hair. Lots of hair, like that Cowsills song lol. I'd fit right in!

That's for sure! My favorite ones were from the 70s&80s.
Rare earth had a tremendous singer.
I just listened to an interview with him that was pretty interesting.
If you don't like the calf liver, it won't bother me any. When I was younger, I didn't like liver at all. To me chicken liver was just fish bait and beef no better. When my vegan teacher, Dr Daniels described health problems from her diet, she learned why. She was malnourished.
One of the things she recommended were certain organ meats like liver. She convinced me to try it and I actually liked it prepared like I described. I felt better too and use it for recovery when I can afford it. I also found it good in stir fry. Sweet onions and garlic are the pairs that make the flavor change. If you don't like those, I would try some veggies you like.

Thank you for the video, I enjoyed it!
My dad introduced me to Rare Earth. He had went to one of their concerts back in the day. Such good music back then.
I am very curious to try calf liver using the advice you gave me yesterday. Thank you again for replying!
My family was very keen on chicken liver. I've cooked and eaten chicken livers in a variety of ways over the years and haven't found a way that I didn't like them. I'd eat them everyday if I could. One time I had to get a transfusion of 4 pints of blood and my blood count still wasn't up to par. The good thing to come out of it was I was given the green light to eat all the chicken liver I wanted lol.
I've had beef liver with onions, and though I didn't find it appealing, I intend to try it with onions again but while also using your other tips as well. I might even try some peppers with it too. A stir fry sounds good! I haven't had beef liver in a long time, so if anything it'll remind me of what it taste like. Calf liver seems to be inexpensive where I buy groceries. I live in cattle country, after all. I intend to get groceries at some point this coming week and hopefully I'll be trying calf liver soon.

Jacko,
Another way of saving which is often overlooked is making your own bread, a 50 ib bag cost between 5-17 dollars The same cost of three loaves of bread you could make 60 loaves of bread.
recipe
3 cups flour
1 Tbs sugar
1 tsp instant yeast
1 1/4 cup water
The same recipe can be used for the following French bread, rolls, olive/Rosmary bread, pizza, cinnamon rolls, Calzones, flour tortillas, naan, and cranberries walnut bread.

Jacko,
mix the dry ingredients together with a fork put a hole in the middle add the 1 1/4 cup water use the fork and mix until it does not stick to the hands then gather it all together and need for 2-4 minutes put a cloth on it for 20 minutes. Its okay if its a bit wet put some flour on the baking sheet if its too dry put a little oil on top of the rolls/ bread set in oven let sit for 20 minutes then bake.
