More about the best meat delivery services

Although I have found the most popular and, in my opinion, best meat delivery services. Each of them by itself could be the best home meat delivery service online. It depends on what meat you are shopping for and I hope that the reviews also answer the question of how to buy meat online.

If you are into steaks you can have a look at the page I made for finding the best online steaks. Where I tried to find and reviewed several stores.

You can see on that page that some of them are the same companies I wrote about and the reason is that some of them have specific pages for and to order steaks.

I am still planning on adding many more of them to help you find the best online meat market to help you make life easier after a busy day at work and to help you find the answer to the question of where can I order meat online?

How Do I Conduct My Meat Delivery Reviews?

meat delivery services reviews written on a typewriter.

I have a lot of experience doing research and writing reviews and this will help me do this job of reviewing online meat stores and finding your best meat delivery service.

There are a few obvious things I look at in an online butcher shop and they are:

  • Quality of the meat
  • Grass-fed
  • Grass-finished
  • Customer reviews
  • Packaging
  • Prices
  • Shipping cost
  • Delivery time
  • Refunds
  • Guarantees
  • Online Reputation

You will understand that these are just a few of the things I look at in my research to find the best online meat delivery service. In many cases, you have to read between the lines to also.

I can give you an example, some sellers call their meat organic. In the past, I already did research on what Organic legally means (1) and I use this in my end conclusion.

If I still have questions I will not hesitate to contact the supplier or even the farm where the meat comes from.

I have noticed that most suppliers like to help me out with my questions.

What to expect after your meat is delivered

After your place your order at your best meat delivery service you have to make sure it is the quality your expected from it. Here are some tips.

As soon as your meat delivery box is delivered you should open the package to see if it still is frozen or at least cold enough to refreeze.

There are sources that mention that you can not refreeze meat after it had been thawed out. I have, however, done this several times without any problem.

I suggest that you write a date on the package and maybe also a little label that mentions what is in the package. I have had several times that I forgot what I put in the package.

The meat should look fresh and appealing to the eye and here are some tips on how it should look.

Pork. This meat should have a pink to red color and the fat should be white and not have any dark colors. It is not a good sign when it is pale in color

Beef. The best color to see on beef is a kind of bright cherry. Just be aware that a sealed bag can make it look darker red. If you open it up it should be bright red.

Lamb. The color of a good piece of lamb is red to soft pink and the fat should be white, just as the marbeling.

Poultry. Chicken or Turkey is supposed to look pink. If it is grey it means it is older. It is obvious that a greenish or purple discoloration in parts of the neck and a darker wing is not a good sign.

How much to order?

How much meat should I order? This is a question I have seen many times. I always like to order as much as I can afford at the time of ordering. The reason for this is that in many cases the shipping fees stay the same and I save money on ordering more.

The second reason is that many of the meat delivery services I have reviewed here have sales. If you have a sale and you can order more you benefit double.

When you buy meat online in bulk at the right time you can save quite a lot of money.

Meat for a BBQ party

Meat for a BBQ party. I don’t know about you but I love to grill and smoke meat on the grill. I have found a few of the best places to order meat for the BBQ and wrote about them here on the website. Many people order meat that is specifically cut for grilling. For these orders, I maintain the same criteria. Order as much as you can to save money.

On this website, I not only look at meat but also at the best home food delivery in other categories.
