Capon, Whole

A capon is the perfect special occasion bird and is the first choice for the holidays in France and Italy. Capon meat is very white and, unlike that of other chickens, marbled with fat. Larger than a hen and smaller than a turkey, a capon is full-breasted with tender, juicy, flavorful meat that is well suited to roasting. Because of its size, the capon is a good choice to feed a dinner party or even a small Thanksgiving gathering in place of turkey. Our capons are humanely raised in free-range conditions with full access to open fields, and allowed to grow at a natural rate, with no growth stimulants ever used.
