I roasted a whole chicken a few weeks ago (beer can method). it came out smokey and delicous but it got me to thinking about the economics of whole chickens. Based on my estimate of how much meat I got off the whole chicken it doesn't seem that much more economical than buying boneless, skinless breasts when they're on sale ($1.99/pound).
We usually stock up on about 20 pounds of chicken breasts when they're on sale.
Has anyone else found whole chickens to not provide that much savings?
