beef be fresh when it arrives at your door?

freshness guarantees
- Special packing ensures that the beef will remain
frozen or chilled for 40 hours after being shipped out

How is the beef packed for shipping?
Cuts and roasts are vacuumed sealed in plastic and flash frozen.
Sealed cuts are boxed and then placed in a cooler packed with dry ice
or gel packs. The cooler is sealed and passed to the courier for
shipping. The dry ice or gel packs keep the beef frozen or well
chilled. The flash freezing process is unlike regular freezing
because ice crystals do not form in the meat fibres.

What
should
you
do
after
the
beef
arrives?
If you intend to cook right away: remove the gift box from the cooler,
and take out the the individual cuts that you need from the box
and thaw them in the fridge still
sealed in their vacuum pouches. After they are fully thawed,
remove each cut from the pouch and season and cook immediately. l
If you do NOT intend to cook right away: simply place the gift box with
the cuts inside directly into the freezer.

When you order steaks online, should you be
concerned about the quality
of the beef?
- No you should not. In fact, when you order
steaks, the quality of the
beef sold by many of these companies is much higher than that purchased
at your local supermarket.
- Some companies specialize in grass-fed beef from
cattle who have not been fed any grain and live their lives in
open-pasture.
- Other companies are closely affiliated with the
ranches on which cattle are raised. These cattle are not mingled
with those of other ranches and therefore each cut can be traced to the
herd from which it originated.
- Others still produce organic beef products free from
antibiotics and growth hormones.
All the companies have their meat processed from FDA inspected
facilities.

- Almost all of the companies have money back
guarantees. The better ones (LaCense) have an unconditional

takes longer than 40 hours to arrive, most companies will usually
refund your money - no questions asked.
