Beekissed I think that is a heck of a deal & I would go for it if I were in your shoes. Just use them for stew, soup, chicken & dumplings, dishes you would cook for a long time anyway. My 2 roosters are too old to be tender but I will use them for soup this winter.

Was thinking about deboning and putting them through my meat grinder, then freeze. Anyone ever try this?

This would tenderize them right away and make them fine enough to use in most any recipe. It would look funny in soup, but the taste would be the same. What do you think?

Beekissed, I wonder how cooking them in a pressure cooker with a little wine and herbs would be. It might tenderize them and the wine would give great flavor.

I don't know, but the boys would sure like that! Now, how to buy the wine in this small community without it getting around that I'm a souse! :p The closest I can come is my red wine vinegar and the cashier still smirks at me! :D
