This company has me as a forever customer for a few reasons. This is a meat home delivery service. Their site is clear and easy to order from. Lets talk Second City Prime Steak and Seafood!
QUALITY: The QUALITY of the meat is phenomenal. This delivery service company will send you whatever you order in a box with a frozen back to make sure your meat is frozen when it arrives at your doorstep. So you think, "Ok, well how is it going to taste?" LIKE BUTTER. IT TASTES LIKE MEAT BUTTER. I didn't flavor my meat much. If you have a great piece of steak, you don't need to flavor your meat. I cooked my filet mignon on a cast iron with thyme, some butter, salt and pepper and it tasted fantastic. If you use any sauce (like A1), go to a grocery store instead. This meat was wonderful.
The burgers, OH MY GOSH, they have ground beef patties and they are like no other. You put The Rub on that baby and enclosed between a brioche bun, your taste buds thank you for days.
VALUE: I ordered the Prime Time Package for $130. It came with Filet Mignon, Prime Boneless Ribeye, Prime NY Strip and a bottle of The Rub dry spice. To me, for this quality of meat, I find that purchasing more than a couple kinds is best. Especially during shelter in place, I can easily store them in my freezer. It doesn't take much space and I can take them out in the morning to thaw and (if you chose) marinate your steak in the afternoon for a few hours before hitting the grill or cast iron.
SELECTION: You can pretty much get any kind of steak you want. They have Wagyu meat and they go quick! You can also get poultry and seafood. Prime Beef, Wagyu (Australia and Japan) Ground Meats and Hot Dogs, Dry Aged Beef, Iberico and Berkshire Pork, Amish and Organic Poultry, Domestic Lamb, Seafood and Roasts.
PACKAGING: Each steak or meat is individually packed. If they are double packed, the site will tell you. This makes for great portion control when you aren't trying to eat too much. Everything is pre-weighed, trimmed and cleaned. All you have to do is rip open the packaging.
The labels also tells you how to store the meat and it's inspection stamp. This is great help, especially during COVID times. I was thoroughly pleased with the meat, how it tasted, how it held and the way it looked after I thawed it out. When you get it delivered to your home, it's in a box wrapped in foil and with ice to ensure the meat is cold for it's trip to your house.
SERVICE: LET'S TALK ABOUT SERVICE!!! So, I had questions. I reached out to Chris and Susie (owners of this business) and they answered my messages instantly. I had so many questions and they were so nice and patient with me. If you ever run into them, you would be delighted to talk to them. Very personable people and they know their product. They are my own personal meat experts! I'm glad they have this business becasue they are going to hear from me more often because I'm going to purchase more meat!
Their website is clean and easy to navigate. I look for whatever meat I want and I can easily find it! Placing an order is just as easy. I created an account and now go in when I have another order with my information. It's so easy. I was also happy to get it hand delivered to my doorstep, after a day!
I love this company, the people that run this and the product. I am most certainly getting some more meats as gifts in the future. The best part is that I don't need to worry about delivery because they will deliver the product to your doorstep.
