    The Chickery began with a desire to collaborate our favorite chicken recipes. However, upon testing, revising, and formulating recipes, we found that were doing endless research to discover the best way to prep, cook, and grill our chicken. What we found through endless Google searches was that everyone has their own "best way” to prepare and cook various chicken dishes. When it came to grilling there were many recipes, grilling methods, and even grills that seemed to fall short. When we started out with this idea to create a site dedicated to chicken recipes we really had no idea what we were doing as it relates to the culinary of chicken, we just knew we loved to eat it.Today we understand so much more about what it takes to yield the perfect chicken strip, or how to smoke a delicious Thanksgiving turkey. This was our inspiration for the site you see today.
