How did I miss this? Here's the recipe I tried for the first time yesterday, and I was fairly proud of myself.

Get 3 - 4 boneless chicken breasts and a pack of boneless chicken thighs. Doesn't really have to be boneless, if you don't mind dealing with the bones later. Toss them in the crockpot. Mix 1/2 cup of bbq sauce - we like KC Masterpiece Original, 3 tablespoons brown sugar, and a can of Coca-Coca. Pour over, turn crockpot to low, and go to work or whereever. For at least 6-7 hours, but mine went for 12 yesterday.

Take chicken out, pull apart with two forks OR chop and mix light meat with dark. Moisten with as much cooking liquid as desired. Serve on buns, nachos, potatoes, rice, eat by itself, whatever.

The recipe I followed actually said to use 1/2 cup ketchup instead of the bbq sauce, but at 6:30 yesterday morning, I couldn't find the ketchup. I think it turned out better!

I hear that deep freezers are hot items during tough financial times. Just be sure that generator is hooked up for hurricane season, or else it will draw flies.

Or, if your freezer happens to be an upright model, always make sure the door is closed, firmly.

We are still in the process of restocking.

I wish we did too! Here we have Kroger and their chicken breast are $1.99 lb also this week. But up until about 6 months ago they were .99 lb when on sale there.
If we had Publix here, I wouldn't buy my meat there too often,when I was in Jax last year for a couple of months and shopped there weekly I though the meat was very high.
However, I loved the bakery and big selection in other areas of the store though!

I use this type (boneless,skinless) for chicken salad

I just got this from a co-worker via email for those of you who went to Publix and stocked up on chicken breasts.

I made the best chicken alfredo last night and it was so easy! I thought it was better than Olive Garden! Of course the sauce came in a jar ;-) My whole family wanted seconds and they are very picky! Here's the recipe, if you're interested:


5 large chicken breasts
2 jars of Bertolli Alfredo Sauce
Large package of noodles (spaghetti or fettuccine) (any kind would be good)
Fresh (or sliced) mushrooms (optional)
Red or orange bell pepper (optional)

Cut chicken into strips and fry with seasoning (I used Adobo and Condiments Complete from Publix, plus salt and pepper). Remove fat from pan (if there is any). Add jars of alfredo and simmer. Break noodles in half and boil. Drain and add to sauce/chicken mixture. Sautee mushrooms and peppers and add to mixture.

Bon Appetite!!!

If you see inorganic chicken on sale it might be wise to pass.

I know what you mean. I used to shop at Harris Teeter and loved it, because it was so much nicer than Kroger. I've lived in some towns with crap for grocery stores (think IGA, Piggly Wiggly), and I've lived in a town with some really great grocery stores. Publix is a real treat compared to some, and just average, compared to others.

You're right! It's on the front page of the Publix flyer in the newspaper here in GA. Now only if freezer bags were on sale.

And Dove chocolate (an addiction for us) is 2 for $6, a $2.58 savings on two. We have two every evening for dessert and at 40 calories each, that's not bad.

Thanks for the info. We eat a lot of chicken breasts at our house.

Jen-Nay, freezer bags were on sale, too. I ran into several friends at Publix and told them about breasts. They all ran over and grabbed some.

Seriously, jdarg, you have started a "Pay It Forward" event. Think how many people will save money during these hard economic times thanks to your thread.

We'll try it! Sounds good.

Sorry I missed out on the dueling haiku's but one of us is working on getting the economy back on track by getting money in this stimulus bill (insert wink here for SJ).

Boneless chicken breasts are great for fajitas - cut into strips, marinate w/ some lime juice and red onion, then cook up in the frying pan w/ a dollop of butter.

Add bowls of sour cream, salsa, grated cheese, avocado slices, sauteed mushrooms, torilla shells, extra napkins, and whatever else you want to the table and presto - kid friendly meal where everyone gets it how they like it!

Great meal for a busy weeknight as there are only 2 things to cook - sauteed mushrooms & chicken - all the rest is cold and premade (except the avocado slices).

We grill more than we need, then use the leftovers for salads, stir fry, wraps, etc.

Time to start the grill!

I spent some time in the Charlotte area, where they had some really nice brand new Harris Teeters. I still think they were the best "big chain" groceries I've used. And our Publix is a lot nicer than some of the, shall we say, well used ones I've found in south FL. It really does depend on the individual store as much as the chain.

Thanks for the heads up Jdarg! Picked some up today - chicken and rice for us tonight. Who knew a thread about chicken on sale would get so many hits and replies?

Trip to Publix after work produced mucho Chicken Breasts. And the buy 1 get 1 free thick sliced Smithfield Bacon.

Chicken Alfredo for dinner tonight, and a good breakfast this weekend.

Hooray! With you and jdarg leading us, I feel something happening! Save us!

bacon....(drool) buy some for me, too, not that I need any bacon. I'm watching my swimsuit figure. March is less than two months away!

I will eat a piece for you. I am practicing moderation. Not giving up the foods I love, just pushing myself away from the table.

p.s. Like you need to watch your figure. :roll:

I don't know if I will ever get so excited about food on sale again. The chicken sale just kind of hit me as amazing. I am keeping one of my 2009 resolutions of finding the joy in small things. Like chicken on sale for 2 freakin' dollars less than I have been paying since I moved here!

I do want to take advantage of the bacon deal though. How do the Publix sales run? Sat to Sat or Sun to Sun?

Apparently the grill smelled so delectable that Fiona the dog gave herself a hair singed "unibrow"- she must have been sniffing around with her head under the grill, and her hair is so puffy she never felt it burning....She now looks goofier than usual!

I am not sure when the sales run, I will check their website. Oh, Oh, Oh I forgot something. I also bought my Folger's Black Silk coffee on sale. It was $4 less than usual. Boy, was I happy!!!

poor Fiona.

Thanks jenay!!!!

Am I the only one who finds the discussion of breasts and Teeters in the same thread amusing?

Thanks for the heads up, Jen-Nay!
