You'll have to get himself to try this way of cooking an old chicken next time CLKD. My mum used to be a dab hand at cooking "stewing chicken" as she called any chickens over a year old http://www.waldeneffect.org/blog/Traditional_way_to_cook_an_old_chicken/

We had chicken on Friday. It was very tender but probably not as tasty as your tough one! Mind you it was only three months old I guess!

Thanks.  This was a registered Bluebell, a large breed that we bought for eggs, they don't lay all year round like the hybrids did.  When we were left with 2 healthy birds and when our circumstances altered, we culled both - her sister wasn't tough at all.  Apparently a soup is in the offing  :-\ - I will suggest that he puts it into the slow cooker  ;D

Just had full Sunday roast - chicken, potatoes, carrots, red cabbage and gravy, followed by strudel and custard.  I love getting back home to the smell of a roasting joint!

DH does the culling.  None left now.  We bred rabbits for the table years ago, crikey over 30 years ago  :o - the adults had named but I couldn't be bothered giving names to 11+ baby bunnies  ;D

This evening DH put 2 pasties into the microwave, heated them through to Very Hot - now stuffed  ;)

Not really, it's in and out quite quickly and it's going to be flakey when cut  ;)
