  • Your order will ship 1-3 days from the date you place it. 
  • As soon as your order ships, you'll receive an email with tracking information. 
  • Most orders are delivered 1-2 days after they ship. Our carriers typically deliver between 8-8pm on Monday-Saturday, with a small number of deliveries occurring outside of those hours. Check your tracking information to follow your order!
Once you get word that your box is on its way, it’s time to make room in your freezer. As you unpack, we’ve found the best step to take when you receive your Market box is to first figure out which cuts you want to cook within the next five days. Those cuts can go straight into your refrigerator to start defrosting. Everything else can go into your freezer where it can remain, frozen, for more than a year. (In theory, you can keep frozen meat indefinitely, however, for quality purposes, the USDA has some guidelines that you can find here on how long you should keep it frozen.) To organize your freezer, start by putting bagged items on the bottom (think chicken nuggets, salmon, meatballs and shrimp), then and add individually packaged items (like chicken breasts and thighs) on top. Pro Tip: cut the packages so you can easily stack!), then any items like ground beef and ground pork can easily stack on top of one another to take up less space.
The safest way to thaw frozen meat and seafood is in the refrigerator. An average size cut of meat, say like a filet mignon, chicken breast, or pork chop, takes a day to fully defrost in a fridge. Larger cuts, like a roast rib, pork butt, or whole chicken, take about 24 hours per four pounds to thaw. When defrosting meat and seafood in the refrigerator, make sure to put the frozen protein on a dish, in a bowl, or a large, sealable bag. Sometimes, the frozen packaging gets small tears due to being jostled during shipping and while this does not affect the flavor, quality, or safety of the meat, you may have excess liquid leak as it defrosts. Defrosting Beef, Chicken and Pork: The night before you intend to cook it, place your chosen protein on a dish, in a bowl, or sealable bag in the refrigerator to defrost. Remember, be sure to keep your protein in its original packaging. It should be ready by the next evening! Roasts may take a bit longer, so be sure to pay attention to the size of the cut when planning. Defrosting Seafood: Remove seafood from packaging and place on a plate or within a bowl and back in the refrigerator to defrost. Unlike beef, chicken, and pork, you want to remove the seafood from its original packaging.
