When it comes to premium poultry, freshness is everything. For chefs and home cooks who prioritize flavor and quality, nothing compares to chicken that tastes as if it were prepared straight from the farm. At Jidori Chicken®, we understand that freshness isn't just a preference—it's essential. That's why we hand-process and ship our chicken within 48 hours of live slaughter, and more often than not, it is shipped within 24 hours of slaughter. This ensures an unparalleled farm-to-table experience.

The Jidori Chicken® Difference: Freshness You Can Taste

Our chickens are carefully hand-processed and shipped with the utmost care, so they most likely arrive at peak freshness. This rapid turnaround mirrors the quality and flavor profile of live-slaughtered chicken, renowned for its rich taste and tender texture.
