Description
What is a Yorkshire Christmas Cockerel Crown?
A Christmas cockerel crown is the breast and wing portion of a whole Yorkshire Christmas Cockerel, left on the bone for roasting. At approximately 1.5kg it is a convenient centrepiece for a smaller Christmas table, serving around 4–6 people depending on portion size.
Yorkshire provenance and flavour
Prepared from traditional Yorkshire Christmas Cockerels reared in East Yorkshire and fed on locally grown grain. The meat is succulent, firm and full of flavour, with the rich character of a traditional roasting bird.
Whole cockerel or crown?
Choose this crown when you prefer breast meat, simpler carving and a smaller joint. For a larger family roast with both breast and leg meat, see the whole Yorkshire Christmas Cockerel.
How to cook the crown
Roast with butter and herbs, and use a meat thermometer to check the thickest part is fully cooked before serving. Rest before carving. Keep refrigerated and follow the pack label for storage and use-by information.
