Recently, while visiting the Columbia, Maryland Wegmans store, I decided to try their rotisserie roasted chickens. They were advertising them for $4.99 which seemed a good price. One thing I discovered while looking them over is Wegmans offers their chickens in 5 different flavors - plain, barbecue, lemon pepper, roasted garlic and Caribbean lime. As I like Caribbean stuff (see my recent review on Jamaican style spicy beef patties), I decided to try their Caribbean lime. I found it was a nice flavor and, the chicken was nicely cooked. The meat was tender and, the chicken was reasonably packed in its container. The only drawbacks I saw is you are paying a slightly higher price for the different flavors and, you don't get as much chicken for your money. Sam's Club recently lowered the price on their 3 pound roasted chickens to $4.88 (this was the price at the Laurel, Maryland Sam's Club on October 17th, 2012) which makes them slightly cheaper and, Wegmans roasted chickens weigh in at 2 pounds 2 ounces so you don't get as much chicken for your money as you do at Sam's Club. Still, it is nice to be able to choose among the different flavors. I look forward to trying their barbecue and lemon pepper flavors. If you want to try something a little different chicken wise, you might want to try Wegmans rotisserie roasted chickens. You'll find them in the prepared foods section of the store. Bon Appetit!
Update January 11, 2015: Sam's Club roasted chicken's at the Laurel, Maryland store are $4,98 now. Today, I bought one and, that is how I know the current (as of this update) price. They are still 3 pounds.
