How many leg quarters are in a 10 pound bag?

How much chicken is in a case of leg quarters?

Are chicken leg quarters worth it?

It's an economical cut that comes with a considerable amount of fat and flavor. Best ways to cook them: Leg quarters are versatile and can be cooked whole, or the thigh and drumstick can be separated and cooked as desired. When left whole, the leg quarters are delicious when roasted or grilled.

What is the difference between chicken legs and chicken leg quarters?

The whole leg of a chicken, or the chicken leg quarter as it is sometimes known, is the thigh and drumstick connected as one piece. It is also known as a chicken quarter, because when a chicken is divided into the separate breast and leg portions, it creates 4 pieces / quarters – 2 whole legs and 2 breasts.
