Report
BY ANNE HOIBERTON
Agricultural Extension Service
University of Delaware

The outdoor picnic and cooking
season is beginning and with it
comes a great demand for q u C k
meats. What could fill the bill bet
ter than broiler-fryers? t h e
meaty birds are a longtime favor
ite of summer cooks because they
are easy to prepare, cook quickly,
are inexpensive and almost univer-
sally liked.
Broiler production is increasing
seasonally and is expected to reach
a peak during the summer. t h s
seasons production will not match
that of last year when markets
were flooded but supplies will be
quite adequate. Prices may not
reach last summers very low lev
els but broilers are and will be
good buys so serve them often
whether cooking indoors or out.
