    Is this really cheaper and more efficient than buying a cooked BBQ chicken?

    • GimmeCashback on 29/08/2022 - 17:24
      +25

      No, but it's a completely different eating experience cooking your own roast than buying a sweaty bagged pre-cooked chook.

    • Iluvfreebies-freeDel on 29/08/2022 - 18:10

      It is more of a personal choice. You have time to cook and can cook well buy one.

    • Laziofogna on 29/08/2022 - 19:18

      Only if you buy from Woolworths or Coles. A chicken from a chicken shop costs a lot more than a raw one nowadays

    • Pinchy on 30/08/2022 - 10:00

      Yeah it’s cheaper and tastier

      Supermarket BBQ chickens are shit.

      I'd rather buy this and cook it the way I like it.

      Saying that, a pre-stuffed chicken like this wouldn't be my first choice as I'd rather make my own stuffing.

  • GimmeCashback on 29/08/2022 - 17:23

    Had one of these a couple weeks back. The stuffing is garbage on its own but happy with the roast chook.

      I imagined someone eating the stuffing and throwing the chook away 🤣

        My husband would happily do that. Stuffing is a dish on its own for him. 😂

    Stuffing is a way to get the weight up per kg I got a roast chicken from Ww and removed the stuffing & ended up with a 790grm chicken/sparrow lol so tiny .

    • TEER3X on 29/08/2022 - 18:05

      If made properly, stuffing can be more delicious than the chook

        • R4 on 30/08/2022 - 11:38

          Yep. Supermarket chicken stuffing is usually awful.

    • maskedmustelid on 29/08/2022 - 20:41

      Then how much would be left after you take into account all the bone too?

      • Bdawg on 30/08/2022 - 10:13

        But you can make stock with the bones!

    I have tried Steggles, Ingham and the Aldi home brand. Personally, I feel that the Steggles one is half fat half meat.

    • bdl on 29/08/2022 - 19:16

      That's what the stuffing is for, to soak up the fat :P

    Hey all I buy the standard steggles chicken and roast in my Kamado. I will never go back to any store bought charcoal chicken. The steggle whole chicken is just so juicy that my kids love eating the breast. I never thought there would be difference in chicken quality but I was wrong.

    • pennypincher98 on 29/08/2022 - 18:06
      +5

      my kids love eating the breast

      No wonder they're not going back to charcoal chicken

    • TEER3X on 29/08/2022 - 18:08
      +5

      It's 90% chicken the rest is added to make it more tender but it's crap ingredients

      Get yourself a natural chicken and brine it yourself if you're going to go to the trouble of cooking it in a kamado

      • Vash1984 on 29/08/2022 - 18:18
        +3

        Brining bit of a pain, I don't have a big fridge to fit a bucket. Also eat worse things then care about added crap ingredients.

        • bargainy on 29/08/2022 - 18:23
          +2

          Dry brining is much better than wet for poultry. Can do that in a big ziplock bag.

          • TEER3X on 29/08/2022 - 18:34

            @bargainy: Dry brining is good too, but I much prefer my wet brine concoction

    • Fappo on 30/08/2022 - 12:57

      Lump charcoal + apple wood with a dry rub in the kamado = chicken win

  • pennypincher98 on 29/08/2022 - 18:05

    Potato and gravy makes a great stuffing for chicken. It's cheap, it's weighty and its what people have with chicken. Bravo whoever thought of this.

    I mean if it keeps costs down/level that's good I guess?

    • Fobsessive on 29/08/2022 - 19:47

      The ingredients claim 86% chicken though

      • pennypincher98 on 29/08/2022 - 19:52

        Yeah I've just looked at the ingredients and it's dehydrated potato flakes lol. With that you can afford to still have 86% chicken.

        Wonder what the weight of the chicken is after cooking, my bet is there's quite a bit of water added. Not for the weight of course, but to make sure it's beautifully steamed.

        Still, at $3.75 a kg you can forgive these things.

        • Fobsessive on 29/08/2022 - 20:00

          9% marinade, mostly being water

            @Fobsessive: Made me rethink what water really is, am I marinating myself in the shower every morning. Lol.

  • Homr on 29/08/2022 - 18:06

    Will this fit in my Kmart air fryer?

    • TooSerious2 on 29/08/2022 - 18:10

      Gee, 3.2l. Does that even do enough nuggets for a snack?

      • Homr on 29/08/2022 - 18:15

        Yes it does nuggets and hash browns easily

        • TooSerious2 on 29/08/2022 - 18:20

          That could actually be perfect. Just for one

    • BROKENKEYBOARD on 29/08/2022 - 18:10

      Even if it did it would probably end up uncooked on one side

      • Kommodore on 29/08/2022 - 18:21

        Can always do half at a time.

    • NoApostrophePlurals on 29/08/2022 - 22:35

      Yes. If you minced the whole chicken up.

    • R4 on 30/08/2022 - 11:40

      No. I recently got my first air fryer and the chicken I roasted in it for the first time was one of the best I've ever tasted.

  • Buyingcrap on 29/08/2022 - 18:50

    Best chook I ever did on the weber rotisserie was one of these.

    • mrtin on 29/08/2022 - 19:11

      Bought a non stuffed one and smoked it yesterday on the weber.
      Made pies with the leftovers.
      Not cheaper, but delicious!

  • Phoebus on 29/08/2022 - 19:13

      Oh they are geniuses, put any of their meat in a smoking hot frypan and it goes from searing to boiling in water in a matter of seconds.

    Adult advice for when you cook your chook.

    Use a roasting pan with a rack in it and add a centimetre of water under the chicken before you place in the oven. It will change your life.

    • freddofrog42 on 29/08/2022 - 20:02
      +2

      Plus use the residual leftover stuff for the basis of a really good chicken stock - add bones from the whole chicken and then slow cook with whatever you want overnight or longer. No need to add veg as the basis will keep for weeks in the fridge so just add as needed in future meals.

      • quikchip on 29/08/2022 - 20:26

        Put flour into the residual stuff and stir in a small pot, it'll turn out to be lioe KFC gravy.

        • freddofrog42 on 29/08/2022 - 21:42

          Most likely, just can't stand KFC…

    amazing that this is possible (I know it's half price, but still $7.5 is crazy that it's possible)

      You get what you pay for. Pumped full of god knows what.

    • TrainedMonkey on 30/08/2022 - 09:02

      It's $3.50 per kg, not for the whole thing.

        true…

  • michael9865 on 29/08/2022 - 22:07

    will try one, but definitely not worth it for the normal price

  • nephilim on 29/08/2022 - 23:03

  • BatmanAU on 30/08/2022 - 08:44

    I find that over %50 of the time, I’m turfing their meat out, either tough, chewy or complete fat, Woolworths is rubbish

  • Irishness on 30/08/2022 - 09:00

    the reason people are saying these chooks are more juicy is because they have water added, likely injected into the meat it contains other additives, not exactly healthy & you are paying for it by weight

  • Bdawg on 30/08/2022 - 10:15

    Last time I bought one of these my kelpie jumped up on the table and ate the whole thing while I was in the garage. 2.7kg! He didn't move much after that.

  • Hangryuman on 30/08/2022 - 10:26

    86% chicken plus potato flakes ?

    meh - yesterday at Woolworths we got a nice raw chicken cheaper than this deal, for $3.50/kg - I'd say 100% chicken - and it was very tasty for dinner thank you very much

    so I'm guessing the stuffing of potato flakes is one way of stuffing their profits - that's a no from me …

  • beebul on 30/08/2022 - 12:19

    Shows as $7.50 / 1KG from your link OP..?

    Does it start Wednesday?
