Starting life as an organic farm in the heart of the West Country, The Organic Butchery is proudly founded on a long history of organic principles. We source the best quality organic grass-fed and wild meats, sustainable fish and organic free-range poultry from trusted local suppliers and like-minded brands to guarantee the highest standards of animal welfare and environmental stewardship.

WHAT IS ORGANIC CHICKEN?
Our chickens are 100% organic, they have room to roam, a naturally foraged balanced diet, clean water and high hygiene standards. The chickens are grown slowly for approximately 70 days not 35 like those reared in intensive systems. Full of flavour and oh-so tender, it’s a versatile meat that is full of goodness.
Ingredients
- 2kg organic chicken wings
- 5tsp Steenbergs American BBQ seasoning
- 60ml sunflower oil
- 100ml water
- 2tbsp tomato purée
- 75g runny honey
- 4 garlic cloves, smashed and finely sliced
- 6tbsp white wine vinegar
- 2tbsp Worchestershire sauce
- 1tsp wholegrain mustard
- 4tbsp sunflower oil
- 1 bay leaf
Method
- Pre-heat the oven to 200°C (and get the barbecue ready)
- Coat the chicken wings in the American BBQ seasoning and leave for at least 30 minutes. Pour over half the oil, coating the wings well. Cook in the oven for 15 minutes
- While cooking in the oven, mix all the other ingredients in a small pan and bring to the boil. Brush the chicken wings with the sauce and return to the oven for 15 minutes. Once again, brush the wings with the sauce, and then grill on a hot barbecue for 5 minutes on each side
- Alternatively, you can cook the wings on a barbecue throughout, but make sure it is not too hot and cook the meat slowly and right through

Frequently asked questions
-
In the UK, we now eat more chicken than any other meat. Which means the production of chicken has become more and more industrialised to keep up with demand. We rear our chickens in a free-range, organic environment and to the highest welfare standards. That means the birds have the freedom to roam outdoors during the day, with the shelter and safety of houses at night and in bad weather. We source our chicks from an organic breeding flock meaning they are certified from birth.
-
When choosing any meat to purchase, it is worth carrying out some research. There are a number of studies that suggest organic chicken is a healthier option, containing less saturated fat and higher in omega- 3 fatty acids, which are good for your heart. There are also several other reasons why choosing organic chicken is a good idea. They range from the contribution of organic farming to climate change, animal welfare and the use of pesticides and medicines used in the farming of conventional chickens, organic birds are only given antibiotics if absolutely necessary, rather than routinely, as they are in lower welfare systems to prevent spread of disease.
-
Organic chicken has been reared in accordance to a set of organic high-welfare standards. These organic standards cover not just the bird’s housing, the amount of space they have and the way they are treated, but also what they are fed, how they are transported and eventually slaughtered. Under the current Soil Association standards, chicks can be taken from a conventional system providing they are less than 3 years old and reared organically to 70 days. Our trusted local suppliers provide a natural environment for our birds to thrive without the need for preventative medication: room to roam, a naturally foraged balanced diet, clean water and high hygiene standards.
