Q/ How long will Cryovac meat primals last from production date?
A/ Different brands and different grades of meat from all species have a varying shelf life due to many different factors, the best way to ensure maximum shelf life is to refrigerate all chilled product at the lowest temperature possible, but do not freeze. The closer to zero degrees you can get, the better. Treat the product carefully and do not throw it around or stack other products on top of it that may cause the vacuum seal to break. Should this occur, the best course of action is to remove the cut from the bag, slice or prepare it how you see fit, then freeze the product to cease bacterial growth. Our customer service representatives are available to guide you on shelf life of particular brands and breeds, but as a conservative estimate: beef 4 to 12 weeks, lamb 2 to 4 weeks, pork 2 to 4 weeks, fresh poultry 7 days, the majority of frozen products 12 to 18 months from production date.
Q) What if I require a certain amount of weight of a specific product on my order?
A) We cannot guarantee an exact amount since all our products are sold in whole cartons and all primals cuts vary in weight. However, you can request when placing your order under special comments/requirements the amount of kilos you require for that product and we will do our very best to get it as close as possible for you.
