so I'm trying to build a recipe with 2lbs chicken leg quarters, weighed raw, bone-in without skin. Is there an official entry for this, or an unofficial one that looks close?! I'm having such a hard time finding one I trust!

    Search for: "Chicken-leg, meat only, raw." It will have no asterisk. That's the format for any kind of chicken option also.

    Edit: oh, I just realized you will be weighing bone-in, right? If so, you have to subtract the bones, which obviously can be an issue.

    What I do for bone-in chicken is weigh it cooked. There are good entries (same format) for chicken that specify how it's cooked ("roasted," for example). Then I can just weigh the portion I eat.
