Scalding is the secret to plucking a bird, loosening the quills so the feathers come out easily. This poultry scalder has a 13-gallon tub that holds 1-2 chickens at a time. Built to last, it's made from double-walled stainless steel and includes a large spigot for quick clean-up. May also be used to shrink-wrap birds after plucking. The indicator light will go out once desired temperature is reached.
