Kickin’ Chicken is the brainchild of two local Ballarat chicken fanatics, Jamie Winton and Jimmy Downey. Although split along breast v leg lines, the two “J’s” both agree on one thing, a chicken’s life should be respected by ensuring it is cooked to perfection.
The majority of chicken shops and supermarkets simply bang their chooks in a gas or electric oven, hit a button and hope for the best. That technique is not for Kickin’ Chicken! We treat the convenience of gas or electricity as a swear word, as our cooking method involves something sadly missing from modern life, time and effort. Our charcoal takes two hours every day to come up to heat and the process of slow roasting the chickens takes another
90 minutes before they are ready for you, the discerning chicken fan.
So next time you are thinking of getting a chicken, please don’t consider the inferior backyard boys or international chains, with their lack of care, come and enjoy our products that have been created with love and effort on your behalf. Why would you not?
