Have a rummage and you might just happen upon a 1.9kg one like we did yesterday (OK, 1.87kg!)

These are 10p less than Tesco's Medium Size 1.2kg-1.5kg ones currently (look for short dated yellow stickers on these because they will very probably be located next to the on offer larger ones and consequently will sell very poorly whilst this club card offer is on!)

Product Description

    Once all the water is cooked out, it’ll be the equivalent of a small/medium chicken

    We did ours in one basket of our dual air fryer with trivet underneath and very little fat/water came out. I'll take a pic next time so I can show sceptics

    I ate a whole roasted chicken last Friday, delicious...

    Best when it's straight out the oven

    They are good, but the bones are a nightmare coming out the other end

    Crazy how you get a fixed price on a variable weight product. Akin to filling up in a petrol station and getting charged £1.90 per litre and others getting charged £1.50.

    Bizarre

    I put a note on my order saying 1.8kg plus or it's going back

    Never buy a chicken over 1 kg.

    Why?

    What does the "5+ days" in the picture refer to?

    I think it's to do with the use by date for those ordering online. Means it will have at least 5 days left.
