Shipping Options

Shipment days will vary depending upon your shipping method. We will not ship your product via a shipping method that overlaps a weekend due to the perishable nature of our products. Please choose the corresponding shipping method with that consideration.

 

UPS Next Day Air and UPS Next Day Air Saver (Fresh/Unfrozen)

UPS Next Day Air and UPS Next Day Air Saver ensure delivery by the end of the following day that your order is shipped. If shipping to a business, deliveries typically arrive earlier in the day. If this shipping method is chosen, your order will be sent fresh and unfrozen. This option is perfect for last minute purchases and those who want unfrozen products.

UPS Next Day Air is available to all 50 states, with some limitations in Alaska and Hawaii.

UPS Next Day Air Saver is available to the 48 contiguous states – not available to destinations where UPS Next Day Air delivery is committed by end of day.

UPS 3-Day Select provides delivery by the end of the third business day from day of shipment. This shipping method is an ideal mix of economy and guaranteed delivery. It is perfect for less time-sensitive shipments.

UPS Ground is a prompt, dependable and cost-effective way to ship your purchase. We only allow ground shipment to those states with a transit time of 3 days or less.

Delivery Information

For products not shipped UPS Next Day Air, UPS Next Day Air Saver or Local Delivery, your shipment should be frozen upon arrival. However, in the event that it is not frozen, quality will be maintained as long as the product is cool to the touch. If you do not plan to use the products within 1 to 2 days after delivery, freeze it to ensure the highest quality. Each product is shipped in a freezer-ready package.

When you are ready to use the product, we strongly suggest thawing the item naturally by placing it in a refrigerator until unfrozen. Thawing our product in the microwave or by any other means will greatly increase the chance of deterioration in the quality of the meat.
