Arrives frozen (why?)

Like some Shakespearean treason, 2024 sees the traditional Turkey overthrown by the new King of Poultry - Sutton Hoo's Free Range Cockerel. Long live the King. As the Wagyu of chicken, each of Will's Cockerels have grown incredibly slowly, freely roaming over 40 acres of pasture. This slow process enables them build meat naturally on the frame while they feed and forage on the autumnal chestnuts to build up a gorgeous nutty intramuscular fat. Each one over 3kg, you'll generously feed between 6 and 8 people.

About the Farm

Will Waterer

When you read the term ‘free range’ on a pack of supermarket chicken, you’re led to imagine this agricultural utopia, where hens run through meadows like Theresa May galloping through fields of wheat. Sadly, the reality is that almost none of these chickens would ever describe their environment as ‘free’. Cooped in enormous static sheds the size of half a football pitch - most will never step out of the barn, nor see sunlight at any point in their lives. Another magnificent effort of food labelling pulling wool over all our eyes. However, there is hope and it comes in the form of Will Waterer and Belinda Nash at Sutton Hoo. Operating on a 40 acre site on the East Coast of Suffolk, their farming method really does live up to that expectation we all have of ‘Free Range’. With every chicken grown slowly, these beautiful birds put on muscle naturally while having the opportunity to graze on the vast pasture. Short of the feed and access to water, there is not a single input into the process. No electricity. No antibiotics. Just chickens growing as they should and tasting as incredible as nature intended.
