What is your favorite heritage breed meat chicken?

Keep in mind that nontraditional meat birds will probably take a year to be able to process at a large weight. I vote rooster Bielefelders, they are huge birds.
I'm raising Bielefelders and they are feather sexable. I'm going to raise or sell females and use males for processing. I incubate the eggs.
