Score for both of you! I noticed that we haven't had chicken quarters go on sale here for months. Asked the buther and he didn't know. Those were always going on sale and I would stock up. Same for the grass fed ground beef. Would go on sale for $5 lb and I would get 6 of them. Yet it hasn't been on sale lately either.

Our local grocery had a 10 lb bag of chicken leg quarters for $4.40. It was still frozen, so it went in the freezer, to be cooked up and get lots of broth later this week. Maybe I'll get another bag, at that price.

Which reminds me: do you think chicken broth will keep longer in the freezer if the fat is skimmed off?

Sounds good! I haven't seen a great meat deal in a long time.

I shuck the corn, plunge in boiling water for a minute, then take it out and put it in cold water to cool it off. Let it drain, pack in zip lock bags and freeze. Actually I use food saver bags and vacuum seal, but before I got that, I used zip locks.
