How to Properly Store Raw Meat & Poultry

Note: All of our chicken/meat is prepared & delivered fresh unless stated otherwise.

• Upon receipt, handle and store the raw meat within a couple of hours.

• Raw meat can be stored in the refrigerator [40°F (4°C) or below] on the bottom shelf for up to 2 days.

• If freezing raw meat, please freeze immediately. Raw meat can be kept in the freezer [0°F (-18°C) or below] for up to 9-12 months.

• Pack the raw meat in airtight packaging to avoid freezer burns.

• When defrosting, place the frozen meat in the fridge to defrost.

• Once defrosted, do not refreeze. Use within 24-48 hours after defrosting.

Note: Because our meats are freshly prepared and vacuum sealed, they may have a slight odour when opened.

Pro Tip: 

• Pat dry and salt raw meat/chicken and place uncovered on the bottom rack in the fridge to prolong shelf life.

• Marinate the raw meat/chicken in ginger/garlic, lemon juice, and salt to prolong shelf life.
