I found a local butcher…ohmygarsh…it is literally 1/4 mile from my house and I didn’t even know it was there! I am going to check to see if the butcher carrier chicken feet…ewww! LOL!

@deneicer1 I guess so. I wish I could remember the brand. I threw it out after that fun little turn of events so I wouldn’t grab the grinder by mistake again. I remember using the peppercorn mix for another recipe, a steak rub, but I think there were so many other flavors that it didn’t bother me.

However I could really taste it in the soup since there weren’t as many competing, strong flavors.

I found a site that says allspice is also known as Jamaican Pepper because it is used so often in their cooking. Maybe that is why it was included in the pepper-corn mix? Its bulkpeppercorns site. That is crazy! LOL!

That is Hilarious! How in the world did you find mixed peppercorns WITH allspice? Really? I had no idea there was such a creature! Hahaha! That is so funny….I have mixed up something before that was truly tragic. I will have to ask my husband because right now I just can’t remember. It wasn’t funny at the time, trust me.

The meat vendor at yesterday’s farmers’ market sold me chicken necks and chicken feet when I asked for parts for stock. I’m glad I found your post, Heather! I have two pots going on the stove…I with chicken necks and one with chicken feet. There’s hardly any scum on the chicken feet pot, it looks like the winner so far! Thank you for making this simple.

I knew that chicken feet made the best broth but did not have a recipe like yours. I got carried away and threw a whole chicken in the mix ( one that needed to be used so I thought why not) and then realized I probably messed it all up it it wouldnt come out like in the picture. But to my complete surprise, it was still "gel-ly" in the end. Thank you. Just like my mother in law said, I always threw the feet in without cutting the toenails off and I didnt cook for as long. But this stuff was excellent.

I use a lot of bones for soups. Beef, chicken, pork and turkey bones. Once you get over the "squimish" aspect of chicken feet, necks and backs, you will realize the best broth one can get. It doesn't exist in a can; only home made. The next time you eat in a Chinese restaurant, think about what they use for soups and stock. Canned chicken broth? No way. They couldn't afford to use it. They have lots of leftover chicken parts that goes into the stock pot so they always have a plentiful supply for soups and cooking liquids.

[...] Better yet, learn how to make your own chicken or turkey stock. Heck, I’ve even made it from chicken feet. When you make your own, there’s no worry about MSG or absurdly high sodium [...]
