Buying in bulk

A grocery store near my home advertised chicken for $1.25/lb. Another closer local grocery store matched the price. That gave me 40 lb of fresh chicken for $50.  We don't eat a lot of meat.  I typically used about one pound at a time for the entire family.  We rarely eat meat as a main dish.


I cut up the chicken and seasoned it to my family's liking.  In this case it is as follows: (starting at top left)
1. chicken tikka masala spiced chicken
2. plain chicken
3. green chicken (I took the green chimichurri sauce from the other day and added about 2 ounces of canned milk I had left over from another recipe)
4. mexican (chili powder, cumin, ground coriander, canola oil)
5. BBQ (leftover home made BBQ sauce)
6. asian (sesame oil, fresh minced ginger, rice vinegar)

I love garlic but ran out mid project but otherwise, everyone would include fresh minced garlic as well.  These are now going into the freezer until I need one.  I typically put one in the fridge the night before I prepare it.  Enjoy!
