  • No Hexane
    Most poultry producers use hexane-processed soybeans as a cheap source of chicken feed. But hexane pollutes the air and environment. We keep chemicals out of our feed.
  • No DDGS
    DDGS is a protein alternative producers can get at a lower cost than corn. Antibiotics are used to control bacteria in the fermentation process. Some antibiotics remain in the DDGS. We use only corn and soybeans for protein. Period.
  • 100% Air Chilled
    Our air chill method eliminates the need for chilled chlorinated water that most producers use, which ends up in your chicken.
  • No Hormones
    This product is free from artificial growth hormones.
  • No Junk
    This product is made with no fillers, no preservatives and no artificial flavors—in other words, no junk.
  • No Antibiotics
    Bell & Evans is the first company to raise 100% of our flocks without antibiotics—from the egg throughout the chicken’s entire lifespan.

    I bought these for my kids but I will buy them again for myself!

  2. says:

    I am really picky about chicken nuggets. Most of the frozen ones I’ve had are disgusting but THESE ARE AWESOME!! I bought these for my kids and will be buying extra for myself this week! I wish they sold them in a larger family pack!

    1. says:

      These nuggets ARE.THE. BOMB!!!!!!!!!!!!
      I FRIED THEM AND I MADE SOME HOMEMADE POLYNESIAN SAUCE.

      1. That sounds delicious, Lashawn!

    2. says:

      You can order a 5lb box usually from your local butcher. Papa Joes here in MI orders them for me.

  3. says:

    I actually just came to your site to see the time and temperature to cook a similar product I had bought. I cannot get yours near me, but if we get up to Charlotte, North Carolina maybe I can find some. Maybe someday you will come to a store in Monroe, NC, which is 15-20 miles from us.

    1. Hi Barbara! It looks like the closest Bell & Evans Retailer is about 17 miles away from Monroe. But keep an eye on our Product Locator, as we frequently enter new markets and keep our Product Locator updated.

    This is the best chicken nugget I have had in my entire life! My husband not only loves it and craves them. My daughter had no complaints and complimented me as if I made them. Everything about these nuggets are a win. The Taste! The very lightly breaded texture which results in way less carbs than any other…. Yes they are organic and airchilled, etc… they are also a true piece of chicken meat rather than a traditional nugget that clearly was ground including adding additional fillers. I’m so happy I found them at whole foods. Because of the price per ounce we just eat less of them and ultimately pay the same price per meal if it was a bag of tysons nuggets that have none of the benefits or Taste of Bell n Evan’s.

  5. says:

    These are the best chicken nuggets ever. They are as if I made them fresh myself. They taste so great and pleased my ever so picky 8 year old. I have never been able to find a nugget she liked, and I’ve tried them all. We will start eating these once a week for sure because I also feel good about the product being positively made with the best ingredients unlike MOST OTHERS. I can’t wait to cut them up on a boston bibb butter lettuce salad. Yum!!!

  6. says:

    I purchased these for the first time from the local grocery store – they are delicious and wholesome.
    Thank you for making a nutritious chicken tender.

  7. says:

    It’s hard pressed for us to find food my extremely picky four year old will eat. I always try new things and hold my breath to see if she likes it. We tried it today and she finished them so quickly and immediately asked for seconds! These chicken nuggets are a winner in our house!

  8. says:

    Purchased these the other day at Giant Food Stores – wow – so good! Light, fluffy and flavorful. I recommend pairing it with some Chick-fil-A sauce! Oh, and buy a second box, one for yourself and another for the kids. They are that good.

  9. says:

    These taste great, but they burn a little on the toaster oven. Any tips?

    1. Hi A.P. Thank you!
      Possibly reduce the heat and be sure they are not to close to the heat source (adjust the rack). However, if you reduce the heat, you will have to extend the cooking time. It’s important to use a meat thermometer to make sure they reach 170°F.

  10. says:

    They cost a lot more than the other brands, but they are so darn good, with minimal processing. I love them and they are the only chicken nuggets and tenders that I buy.

  11. says:

    The best chicken nuggets period. If you cut a Bell and Evan’s nugget next to almost any other nugget you can tell the difference right away. Most nuggets look spongey on the inside and are made from that silly putty crap (think of McDonalds) and loaded with fillers and preservatives. Bell and Evan’s nuggets are 100% whole chicken meat and you can see the muscle fibers when you cut it. Taste wise, it’s awesome.

  12. says:

    Hands Down the Best Chicken Nugget that I have ever had. Crisp, Chunky, Juicy and Meaty!! I have to have more.

  13. says:

    I love these nuggets. What I can’t seem to figure out is how many nuggets equals the 4 ounce serving size. Could you tell me how many nuggets is in a serving, approximately? Love these nuggets.

    1. Hi Sarah, thank you! The serving size is 3-4 nuggets.

  14. says:

    How bout 10 stars

  15. says:

    Without a doubt the best chicken nuggets I have ever had I will get more next time I go to Publix !

  16. says:

    Never stop! I don’t know what I would do without your products. Ultimate taste without sacrificing quality. Thank you.

  17. says:

    MY PICKY TODDLER LOVES THEM!!!
    WOAH!! Finally, a product my picky 2.5 LO will eat, THANK YOU! My husband and I love them too!

    1. That’s so great to hear. Thank you Genny!

  18. says:

    9/10 nugg. great price. good taste/texture. 600 calories for the whole box. asking too much time-wise though for an office environment. 30 minutes in the toaster oven is a lot when everyone is waiting to prepare their meals with limited space. The air-fryer option works, but my office does not have one. I can’t imagine many offices do. This is not a work nugg.

    1. Hi Alan, you can pre-cook and reheat at work or pack in a thermos! They’re great that way too. 😊

  19. says:

    these are literally the best chicken nuggets I have ever tasted. they are so fresh and make the best meals. I especially love to put it in salads. thanks for making the best chicken nuggets ever 🤍🤍🥺

  20. says:

    Bought these on a whim and cooked them in our air fryer. Hands down, best chicken nuggets we ever had and we will buy them again. Hopefully we can find the 30 oz bag.

  21. says:

    These are really good, but I don’t understand how these can be both “flash fried” and “uncooked.” Which is it? Is handling these before cooking them the equivalent of handling raw chicken? What temp are they cooked to when they’re flash fried before packaging?

    Thanks,
    Aaron

    1. Hi Aaron, we flash fry just enough to set the breading so it doesn’t fall off through the freezing and shipping process (approx. 30 seconds). In order to fully cook these items in a deep fryer, that process would be much longer (between 7-12 minutes based on which product being cooked), and we do not do that. We keep the chicken uncooked for a better, higher quality eating experience since the meat is only cooked once prior to eating.

  22. says:

    Found these at Giant and cooked them in my air fryer. They are so good. All breast meat, no fillers and organic. Used baby rays honey mustard dipping sauce and they were terrific. Need to get the bigger bag next time. Thank you for making such a quality product!

  23. says:

    I am a 73 year old person. I have tried so many different kinds in all these years. If I go to dinner party and the kids are having nuggets count me in! Forget about the adult dinner. I love them with a little salt and squeeze of lemon or on a salad. These are fantastic product just the very very best!! I can’t wait to purchase more. The only thing not to easy to find!! 😁

    Skip the expensive takeout! Better than any of the so-called “boneless wings” from your local pizzeria. Ait fry for added crispiness, and make your own authentic Buffalo wing sauce instead of the orange chemical goo they use at the pizza joint. It’s so easy: melt about 1/2 stick butter on low heat, whisk in Frank’s Red Hot until the sauce is a bright orange, and toss with the B&E Nuggets. Simple, better for you, and the taste is next level!

  25. says:

    I discovered Bell & Evans chicken during Covid, when our local restaurant was selling groceries for pick up. It’s the only chicken I’ll buy. I had no idea that they had frozen nuggets! I don’t eat chicken nuggets at all because, you know…”parts is parts”. But these are amazing! So easy in the air fryer, great for a quick dinner or lunch.

  26. says:

    The nuggets are amazing, I just wish they weren’t cooked in soy bean oil.
