It's time we cast a spotlight on one of our favorite snacks foods sourced from Pure Pastures' farmer friends, our Whole Milk Cheddar Cheese Curds. We have grown to love that fresh curd "squeak" as you bite into them and the satisfaction that comes from, not only the great taste, but also as your body recognizes this food is extremely good for my health.

Turkey Reminder: Last Year We Sold Out Don't miss out on Pure Pastures Turkey this year!

The approach you take to cooking pasture raised chicken is really important. We don't soak our chickens in a saline solution or inject them with water like commercial factory chickens you get in the grocery stores.

It also means pastured chicken is less moist so special consideration needs to be given when preparing your bird. Here's some tips to cooking pasture raised chicken at your house.
