    How many grams was your portion, and did it have the bone in when you measured it? Did you measure before or after cooking?

    I weight it with the bone in it, then weigh the bones/scraps afterwards. The difference is how much I ate.

    I had 3 last night. 13.5oz, 2.5oz of bones, 11oz net weight.
    770 cals, 0 carbs, 62 fat, 70 protein

    Roasted in the oven til the skin was nice and crispy with some of my own secret seasoning blend. (garlic powder, cumin, paprika, black pepper, a little salt)
