"Home Grown" Chicken and Homemade Noodle Soup
We are urban chickeneers and have had city chickens for a few years now. Our first round of chickens reached the end of the line last month (I'll spare you the gory unpleasant details).
My wonderful grandparents, who have butchered hundreds (or so my grandpa says) of chickens, came to our house last month and helped us butcher four of our chickens. I was more grateful than they know. I have never plucked, or parted out a chicken, so their help was completely invaluable.
