So Bland

These are the blandest chicken nuggets I've ever had. I wasn't expecting anything amazing but even some black pepper in the batter would have been a huge improvement. They are so flavorless inside and out and they air fry horribly dispute following the directions provided. Don't waste your money or freezer space.

Best Nuggies Ever!!!

This will be a very long review, if you dont like reading skip to the bottom. I rate these Nuggies as the best grocery store nuggies ever! they easily compete with restaurant quality. First off for those of you who dont know what chicken nuggets are... they are the remnants of chicken when whole chickens are processed. They add salt %26 seasoning along with oil %26 water, mix it into a paste %26 usually cook it %26 then bread it. these shards of chicken are undesirable in any other form, thus the invention of chicken nuggets. These nuggies are no different than the legal definition of a chicken nugget anywhere else. McDonald's has the best restaurant chicken nugget around according to most people. the main reason for this title is the breading. McDonald's has a tempura styled breading. most grocery store nuggets are a bread crumb or some form of panko breading. If you are discriminating when it comes to your nuggies then you've searched for a quality nuggie. sadly they are so very rare! most fast food restaurants other than McDonald's use similar breading %26 they all are awful!! in a pinch they will do. if you ever get that nuggie craving. but more than 6-10 of those limp often soggy nuggets sold in the grocery store freezer isle are an abomination to nuggies!! i used to buy these very nuggies from walmart until they were discontinued due to low sales. because they are raw chicken they were always stored amongst the raw meats area %26 to be honest most people seeking these types of snacks arent looking for them in that isle so they didnt sell enough for walmart to keep them. i semt many angry emails to walmart regarding this. im very pleased sams club brought these nuggies back. walmart would sell them in a small bag u der q pound size for around $10. this box is 5 pounds at around $15. its well worth it. as the texture, flavor %26 preparation of the nuggies are superior to all others ive tried. Brass tax, 5 stars for texture 5 stars for flavor %26 5 stars for price. you can brown these as much as you want. i like mine lightly brown as shown in the pics. i usually place these in my air fryer at 300° for approx 10 min for a full tray of approx 30 nuggies. at about 6 min into the cook time i flip them to brown on the other side. thats it. they tase surprisingly similar to McDonald's nuggies %26 cost a fraction of the price. they are ready faster than it takes to drive there or order delivery. these are the very best grocery store nuggies i have ever tried. never had a nuggie that was gristle or cartilage, never had one that was all breading like other brands. these are top notch. if you use an air fryer or deep fryer these are exactly like McDonald's nuggies!! well worth the price! thank you sams for offering these

Whoa!! Forget McD's - treat yourself fam

These are 100% as good as McD's when deep fried. I haven't tried to air fry them yet. They are also as thick as McD's used to be before they made them wafer thin to save money. I would suggest stocking up as they're likely to disappear. The breaded trash nuggets don't even come close. THIS IS THE REAL DEAL!

Verrry Similar to McD's Nuggies!

I think these are as close as you can get to McDonald's Nuggets at home! I only tried them in the air fryer and they were very similar! I think if you deep fry them they would taste just like McD's!! So if you are looking for a nugget dupe definitely try these, especially since you get soo many for a good price!!

really good , but dont expect mcdonalds

for what these are, they are really good. i cooked them in the air fryer for my first batch to try them. 390 for 15 minutes , about 10. came put great. Whole chunk chicken vs processed down chicken paste. Tempura breading is good and light. My condiment choince was ketchup and it paired well. Definitely top 2 or 3 in frozen nuggets ive had.

Best frozen nuggets at Sam's

So these are NOT McDonald's McNuggets, those are produced by Tyson Foods. These nuggets are however the best air-fry-able chicken nuggets I've bought - along with Country Pride's chicken strips being the best chicken strips. It's a shame these are both sold in 5 pound cases, because I only manage to eat 4/5 of them before expiration myself. These are roughly 2/3 the size of a McNugget - and actually much healthier - especially airfried.

Please keep these in stock!

Amazing. We bought two boxes last week and they are almost gone. DO NOT microwave them. Air fry is ok. Deep fried and they are just like that one burger place. We do add a dash of salt after frying. if you break down the cost of these vs eating fast food, there is no guilt in eating these anytime. They also work excellent in Chinese recipes. Orange chicken (smothered in simmered Panda sauce!), honey walnut chicken, or sweet and sour chicken. We have three freezers and will always have 5 boxes on hand now.

Great in the air fryer!

Based on the picture I assumed these were like McNuggets, but they are more like sweet and sour chicken minus the sauce. I cooked them in the air fryer and they were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The only complaint is they didn't really brown in the air fryer with the included instructions despite reaching well beyond 165 degrees internal temp. These are the best tasting frozen nuggets I've found. I definitely recommend!

So good

I'm going to try my best to be as detailed as possible. These nuggets are great. They are similar to McDonald's. The batter is thicker. The flavor is good could use a bit more the best cooking method is frying from frozen let them get nice and golden if you don't they can be a bit doughy. They are drier than McDonald's I think they use all white meat scraps. These are the only store bought nuggets my children likes outside of just bare.
