@johnnycomer5712 3 года назад

I bought two for the first time at Kroger a week ago and was impressed with the taste. Well seasoned ,almost no fat ,tender,and hot .l must say that they were not as large as Sam's but the only scraps were the bones.Always look for the ones that are a little darker because they seem to be more done

The fact that Costco sells so many chickens is one of the factors why it's so good. The chickens are sitting for hours or refrigerated after cooking. That being said it's pretty damn good out of the refrigerator as well.

@protorhinocerator142 3 года назад

Sam's Club is amazing. I've never had a bad chicken from there. There's usually a line when they're cooking them. People race in to get them. I've had the Costco chicken and it's a touch better than Sam's. I'd put Sam's at around 98% as good. I have a Sam's Club membership only because it's closer. Costco seemed like a nicer store the few times I went there with someone. Also I don't know about the beef at Costco, but the steaks at Sam's are exceptional. Way better than that "guaranteed you'll love it" garbage at WalMart. Seriously if you want good beef, go to Sam's. And maybe Costco. I'd assume they're close but I can't verify.

@frst78 2 года назад

Wait. I'm a bit of a rotisserie chicken connoisseur and while I do agree with the Walmart opinion, our Kroger has absolutely amazing chicken. It's a huge treat for us actually. Juicy and extremely flavorful, never lacking of substance either. It will last us 3 days usually.

@monkeyb1820 2 года назад

which one do you get? Their 'baked' chicken is awesome. Their plain or 'savory' rotis chicken is kind of bland--but the rotis chicken does come in some other flavors. I needed most of the meat for another recipe and thus got the basic 'savory' one.

@PJL7095 2 года назад

I use to be a Kroger deli manager. They had 3 kinds and a colossal chicken. Came from Tyson. It was all timed & at least in my deli they came out well cooked, juicy & good. Very popular. We also did turkey breasts. Very meaty. Then we had the fried, baked & bbq chicken pieces. On a good weekend we had tons of special orders…. Churches, parties getting 50, 100 or 200 pieces. This to me meant the customers had trust in the product. Problem was … you could go to a Kroger a few miles away & their deli employees made horrible chicken. Just depends on the staff. I live in Cincinnati where Kroger is based

@monkeyb1820 2 года назад

@@PJL7095 I saw the turkey at the one near me. I may have to get back over there, especially if they keep running the '2 things from the hot table for $10' deal. I think food prices are going to keep going up for a while, maybe never go back down.

Costco Canada is, overall, the best rotisserie chicken deal in our market for; size, freshness, taste, and, price. As confirmed by a discussion I had with their meat manager they start with a much larger bird to achieve their final cooked weight. In fact, compared to the best sale prices on fresh uncooked whole birds their chicken is only nominally more expensive. However, they are on occasion still pink around the thighs.
