One of the local market has a recurring special for leg quarters for 39 to
45 cents a pound sold in 5 pound bags. We keep plenty in the freezer. A
single bag will give us two to three meals and when there is a pot-luck at
church, we can defrost three bags and make a good contribution to the table.

It is just the wife and I but we seldom buy meat if it is not on sale and
make good use of our chest freezer.
