Absolutely no water added. Air-chilling makes all the difference in how Nature Select chickens taste and look. The meat is flavorful and tender, because you get every bit of the natural juices. And nothing but.

Again, it’s more complicated than it sounds. Instead of being immersed in water, this unique system cools the chickens with fresh, filtered cold air. Each chicken is individually suspended and travels just slowly enough through a chilling tunnel to cool down the meat at exactly the right rate.

The Nature Select air-chill chamber utilizes a Stork Food Systems’ single layer infra-Chill system which cools the chicken as rapidly as possible using high-velocity air. The process takes approximately two hours and consists of a two-mile system of tracks. The result of this air-chilling is a naturally great taste with no water added.

While the traditional immersion water chilling continues to be the primary method used in the poultry industry, our focus is on providing you with the best possible chicken. And we’ve found the extra flavor of no added water is the way to do it. Nature Select has invested in value-added design and equipment features to provide the largest and best air-chilling facility in the nation. Inspired by European and Canadian air-chilling techniques, our state-of-the-art air-chilling process is clean, efficient, and conserves our natural resources by saving water.
