Additional details

Chicken necks are one of the most underrated cuts for home cooks who want rich flavor and serious nutrition without breaking the bank. These collagen-packed cuts turn ordinary stock into liquid gold and make surprisingly delicious eating when prepared right.

Why Chicken Necks Are a Kitchen Essential

We've seen firsthand how nose-to-tail cooking transforms the way families eat. Chicken necks deliver intense, savory flavor thanks to their high collagen content. They're incredibly affordable, making them perfect for budget-conscious cooks who refuse to compromise on quality.

Packed with Collagen and Nutrients

As the bones and cartilage break down during slow cooking, they release collagen that transforms into gelatin, giving quality bone broth its rich body. You'll also get glucosamine, plus minerals like calcium and phosphorus, as raw chicken necks simmer down into stock that sets up into a satisfying gel when chilled.

Perfect for Stock, Broth, and Beyond

Chicken necks make some of the best stock we've tasted. The chicken neck bones and meat create a deeply flavored base for soups, stews, and sauces. Simmer them low and slow for 4-6 hours for gelatin-rich broth. These cuts also shine when marinated and grilled, or seasoned and fried until crispy. Browse our full selection of ethically raised chicken or explore chicken organs for more nose-to-tail options.

From Ethically Raised Chickens

Our chickens are rotated on regenerative pastures seasonally with outdoor access, where they forage naturally on pasture. This natural lifestyle produces chicken with better flavor and more nutrients. Try our Best of Chicken Box to taste our full range of ethical chicken cuts.

How to Cook Chicken Necks

For stock, place chicken neck meat in a pot with aromatics, cover with water, and simmer for 4-6 hours. For eating the meat, marinate necks in garlic, lemon, and olive oil for an hour, then grill over medium-high heat for 8 minutes per side. They also fry up beautifully—season generously, dredge in flour, and fry until golden and crispy. Check out our value bundles for more budget-friendly cuts.
