Capons

EverydayRaw

Capons are castrated male chickens, typically slaughtered after reaching a heavier weight than standard broiler chickens. This surgical alteration results in a higher fat content and more tender, flavorful meat compared to regular chicken. Capons are prized for their succulent texture and are often roasted whole, making them a popular choice for special occasion meals.
