In this video, we break down a 100% organic whole chicken to show you how to utilize every single part, from "the peak to the feet," to maximize your grocery budget and eliminate waste. You will learn how to efficiently process the bird into eight standard pieces—breasts, thighs, drumsticks, and wings—while saving the carcass and bones to create roughly 4 liters of high-quality organic chicken stock. Beyond the standard cuts, we also explore how to use the skin for rendering chicken oil and turning the organ meats into nutritious "organ nuggets," proving that buying whole is a smarter financial move than purchasing pre-cut breasts. Whether you're a beginner with just a basic kitchen knife or a seasoned home cook looking to save money, this guide provides a step-by-step anatomical walkthrough to help you get the most value out of every bird
