Bulk Chicken Purchases

**reardbandit** · 03-11-2009, 10:09 PM

OK all, I need to be pointed in the right direction. Does anyone have any experience with bulk chicken breast purchases? I am tired of going to Wal Mart, buying the 2.5 pound bags, and then eating the whole thing in a couple of days. Any websites or companies anyone can think of?

I already know where to get bulk egg whites and tuna, but I don't have any experience with where to get chicken breasts. Boneless skinless breasts. Anyone?

**Anabolios** · 03-11-2009, 10:21 PM

Any specialty meat store. i have one close to my house and they sell it in 10 pound bags. you cut it and clean it yourself but its worth it for the price

**luxifer93** · 03-11-2009, 10:26 PM

No discussing sources or prices J/K How much is ten pounds at a meat store? I just bought 10lbs of tyson chicken at Costco for 19.99.

**reardbandit** · 03-11-2009, 10:34 PM

Now is that 10 pound bag skinless boneless breasts? I don't wanna clean it up myself, that takes forever. It would have to be a pretty good price for me to do that. I was hoping to buy about 20 pounds at a time. Thanks fellas

**luxifer93** · 03-11-2009, 10:37 PM

Boneless, skinless breast, they're pretty damn big too. That's the best deal I've found.

**reardbandit** · 03-11-2009, 10:45 PM

sweet, thanks again

**Coop77** · 03-11-2009, 11:01 PM

I load up the freezer when they're on sale at my grocery. That's the best deal I've found.

im sick of chicken all the time.... try fish!

Usually for bulk purchase of chicken breast, it shouldn't be a problem. Find out from the best company of which you buy your chicken breast and get the contact detail/s from the chosen supplier. But as we know, when you have a bulk fresh chicken purchase order you need to store longer thus probably a bigger freezer.

**reardbandit** · 03-12-2009, 04:31 PM

I eat tuna fish and salmon to break up the routine, but I can't stand freshwater fish and I can't afford a large amount of seafood or beef. We all know how expensive beef is, and I can get way more chicken for the same money, so it makes financial sense for me.

I found a wholesaler nearby who would sell me 40lb boxes of boneless breast for a great price.

So how much is a great price?

**illwillogical** · 03-12-2009, 04:54 PM

Another thing with these juiced up chickens, is the breast, they are huge and can't really cut them when they are frozen. I wish you could just find some that are normal size. I have to buy the tenderloins because they're smaller.

It would change weekly but I know it was always well under what I could buy it at the store for. I would take orders for my friends as well and buy up to 400lbs at a time.

Ballpark, trying to get an idea what we're talkin' here

***FireGuy*** · 03-12-2009, 05:15 PM

Dont quote me but I think I remember paying in the $1.90-2.50 per lbs range. This was for Southern Grown boneless breast.

**luxifer93** · 03-12-2009, 05:24 PM

So that's comparable to what I paid at Costco, is there a minimum lbs you need to buy?

**DSM4Life** · 03-12-2009, 05:26 PM

I eat stray dogs.

**luxifer93** · 03-12-2009, 05:28 PM

I didn't know you were Asian?

**RuhlFreak55** · 03-12-2009, 05:32 PM

umm i'm not a rocket scientist or anything, but you don't want to clean them, just want what you get now, but 20lbs instead of 2.5lbs.....

I know how you can get 25lbs of the stuff, EXACTLY the same chicken.

I saw it on unsolved mystery. But you don't have to buy ONE bag of chicken. Walmart will let you buy TEN!!!

costco or sams has a 10lb bag for @$22, oatmeal - 2/4.5lb bags, eggs (7 dz box) and cottage cheese (3lb tub). You can even get organic brocolli in 4 indv. 1 lb bags sold in a large bag containing 4 lbs total!

**reardbandit** · 03-12-2009, 08:34 PM

Ruhl if you want egg whites go to lanaseggwhites.com. It is 8.5 lbs of egg whites, supposedly 165 liquified egg whites, in a bucket that is shipped right to your door for $45 anywhere in the US. Dont know if you are in the US or not, but that's my hook-up

**frank358fr** · 03-13-2009, 12:32 AM

Do you know if they can ship it to canada?

**reardbandit** · 03-13-2009, 07:55 AM

I'm sure they can, just contact them. I just don't know about orders across an ocean, not to mention I dunno how cold they could keep the egg whites while en route to say, England. They might arrive a little on the gross side lol

**Anabolios** · 03-13-2009, 02:41 PM

At my local meat store a 10 lb bag of chicken is roughly 15 dollars.. 1.50 a pound. it comes skinless but a lot of the times there are small white tendons still on there and it is a bit slimy. so you remove it from their bulk bag, cut it down, clean it and cut the little white stuff off. 20 minutes of your time separated into roughly 1lb bags in the freezer. its great. im going to check out that egg white website as well. i am not sure how theyd keep it cold during delivery though

**cshibbyr** · 03-13-2009, 03:51 PM

Any supermarket sell just egg whites at a decent price? I usually shop at kroger, but havent spotted any there. Im so tired of boiling and shelling whole eggs.

**Anabolios** · 03-13-2009, 04:19 PM

Because I just imagined a number and posted it. How else would I get 7g per eggwhite. From the nutrition facts on the website.

lol just busting you. who knows if it really is but id imagine it has to be pretty accurate

**reardbandit** · 03-14-2009, 01:25 PM

I think it is about 13g of protein per serving, which is a 1/2 cup of whites. I'm not sure what that equates to as far as how many whites, but I'll tell you I eat these mugs twice a day and I've had this same bucket for a month now. Just ordered a new one

**spywizard** · 03-14-2009, 01:35 PM

If you live in a a large city, go to to a private butcher that is close enough for you to drive to.. put an order in for fresh butchered chicken..

another way is a farmer that is raising chickens.. but these will be whole chickens..

if you just want breasts, sam's club is the cheapest i've found..

**spywizard** · 03-14-2009, 01:36 PM

that's how i get my beef, and venison...

**reardbandit** · 04-01-2009, 04:10 AM

Dude your avatar makes me laugh every time I see it. Just thought I'd let you know

**Bojangles69** · 04-04-2009, 07:36 PM

Just encase anyones curious,
Every year this world goes through 8 billion chickens for human consumption. I had to find out because when I think about how much chicken I eat everyday I knew it would be high
