should start at the beginning of the thread, or at least skim it.
Yes, I have this thread actually set to push notifications also.overcrowding. Could this have something to do with how I'm cooking the meat? Or is it a sad byproduct of factory farmed chicken breasts? Has anyone else had this problem? But last night, this happened when I roasted some never frozen bone in breasts from the fridge.
At first, I thought it was a result of cooking frozen chicken that hadn't fully thawed. Usually when this happens to me, there are some pieces of chicken that are fine, but others that are decidedly not. This has happened to me with bone in, skin on chicken breasts and also skinless boneless breasts. When I cut into the chicken I feel resistance (like you would when butchering raw chicken rather than cutting/carving cooked chicken) and there is a strange almost squeaky mouth feel.
The chicken is fully cooked through (I can tell based on internal temp, time in the oven, color of the chicken and juices), but the texture of the chicken is funny, almost like it hasn't been thoroughly cooked. I have been having an issue on and off with the texture of my chicken.
