Shipping & Delivery
Your beef will be shipped frozen in specially designed insulated containers. Most orders are shipped within 24 hours. We ship via UPS, which offers sophisticated online and telephone tracking information to help ensure that your order reaches you on time and in good condition. Shipping cost is determined by the weight of the total order and its packaging.
All our beef is shipped frozen. This is because we’re deeply concerned about food safety, and freezing each cut of meat in a carefully controlled and monitored environment is the best way to ensure that you are getting safe beef. In addition our old-fashioned dry aging process requires very precise timing. By aging each cut to the ideal point and then freezing it, you can get tender, perfectly aged meat when you want it.
Unlike grass-fed beef from some other producers, New York Beef company meat does not require any special cooking techniques. Our meat is not exceptionally lean and can be prepared and served like any other premium beef.
How to Properly Thaw Beef
The safest way to defrost beef is to place it on a tray (to catch any juices) in the refrigerator the day before needed and it let it thaw overnight.Roasts require longer to defrost: for large roasts, allow 4 to 7 hours per pound; smaller roasts, 3 to 5 hours per pound. Never defrost meats at room temperature.For more information, see USDA’s Food Safety and Inspection Service website.
