Your Guide to Custom Cutting Meat with Pease Packing
When you work with Pease Packing, we take great efforts to custom-cut your meats precisely to the specifications you give us. We know that one of the great joys of working with a quality butcher shop is the variety of cuts that you can get for your meat.
However, if you’ve never ordered meat directly from the farm and butcher shop before, it can be confusing to know the custom cut instructions for meat. So, this month at Pease Packing we’re diving into everything you need to know about ordering meat with custom cut instructions.
What to Know Beforehand
When ordering meat with custom cut instructions, several important factors need to be considered. Here’s a breakdown of what you need to know.
- Communication with your butcher is key
- Familiarize yourself with certain cuts and terminology
- Think about how you want to cook the meat
- Consider how you’d like it packed
- How you’re going to safely store the meat (if not cooked upon delivery)
- Budget
This may seem like you’re doing a lot of work when you’re just trying to get your hands on some quality beef or chicken. But, taking these necessary action steps before you call to order makes the entire process smoother for you and the butcher.
Seeing all of this through also helps you avoid any issues later down the road. There’s nothing worse than getting all set up to cook your fresh, premium meats, only to realize that you accidentally got the wrong cut, too much of the product, bone-in instead of boneless, or worse.
