These bone-in chicken thigh cutlets are perfect for roasting, braising, grilling, or traditional dishes where depth of flavour matters. For something simple, sear skin-side down in a hot pan until golden, then finish in the oven to retain moisture and maximise flavour.

Raised for 12–14 weeks in open grassy woodlands by the Kiss family at Meramie Farm in Wellington, NSW, Sommerlad chickens are bred for Australian conditions and allowed to grow naturally. Their slow growth and active foraging create richly coloured meat, flavoursome skin, and exceptional cooking quality.

ORIGIN STORY

Only Single origin, which means they all come from the same farm.

Our Grassland Sommerlad Heritage chickens are the original Australian heritage chicken genetics — bred, raised, and processed entirely on the Kiss family’s farm, Meramie, in Wellington, NSW. Slow-grown in open grassy woodlands, they enjoy a natural 14–16 week life cycle that develops strong bone, muscle, and flavour. Outdoor-reared and chemical-free, they offer the rich taste and character of chicken as it once was.

Award-winning and highly sought after, Sommerlad chickens look, cook, and taste unlike any other chicken available in Australia.

what's in the box

Each carton holds 7-8kg thigh cutlets packed in 1kg bags.

One of the most noticeable differences between Sommerlad Heritage chickens and traditional Cobb/Ross chickens is that the legs are much longer and more powerful, and so much more flavourful with real ‘dark meat’. If you like Marylands, you’ll love these. Save the bones in your freezer until you have enough to make a pot of thick, rich, stock.
