Why I Keep Poultry Shears in My BBQ Kit
- 4-inch serrated blade: Helps grip and cut poultry skin, cartilage, and suitable small bones.
- Stainless steel construction: A practical blade material for regular kitchen prep.
- Spring-loaded action: Helps the blades reopen between cuts.
- Easy-grip handle: Gives you control while trimming and breaking down birds.
- Safety lock: Keeps the blades secured for storage.
- More than chicken: Useful for trimming poultry, certain fish-prep tasks, and other suitable kitchen cutting jobs.
How to Spatchcock a Chicken
- Place the chicken breast-side down on a stable cutting board.
- Starting at one end, cut carefully along one side of the backbone, working through the ribs and cartilage.
- Repeat along the other side and remove the backbone.
- Turn the chicken breast-side up and press firmly to flatten it before seasoning.
- Wash and sanitize the shears, cutting board, and other surfaces that touched raw poultry.
For turkey: The same preparation method applies, but larger birds have thicker bones. Don't force the blades through heavy bones; use a more suitable tool or have your butcher remove the backbone if needed.
At $14.99, these poultry shears are a useful addition to your kitchen and grilling tools. Trust Your Butcher.
