Yes, but keep in mind that our vacuum-sealed bags are not re-sealable. Any leftovers should be placed in a covered container in the refrigerator.
MyBraai products should always be thawed on a dish in the refrigerator in the vacuum-sealed package. This is the safest way to thaw food, and allows it to retain their natural juices and extraordinary flavor. Do not thaw products at room temperature or under hot water. While smaller items, usually thaw within 24 hours in the refrigerator, larger roasts, and chickens may take 24-48 hours to fully thaw in the refrigerator. Thawed steaks and chops may be refrozen as long as they have remained refrigerated and have not been thawed longer than one day. Important: Sometimes the vacuum – package can leak while the product is thawing. This is a result of small pinholes that can occur during the freezing or shipping. As long as the product remained frozen and was refrigerated while thawing, this should not be a concern. We recommend using a baking dish or pan to catch liquids.
Yes, all packaging is for product preservation and shipping purposes. Before cooking any product, please make sure to remove all packaging.
Aging meat is a process that breaks down a steak and makes it more tender and flavourful. Meat is placed in special, temperature & humidity controlled refrigerators that are carefully monitored. The meat ages in this environment while its natural enzymes break down the steak.
When we vacuum seal our steaks, the oxygen is taken out of the package. This typically results in a deep, brown color in the steaks. Once the steak is thawed and exposed to oxygen again, some of the red color should return. Keep in mind that an aged steak will often have a darker color than a fresh steak as a result of the aging process.
In order to preserve flavour and tenderness, thaw your MyBraai meats in the refrigerator. It will take anywhere from 12 to 18 hours for steaks. Plastic wrap should not be removed until you are ready to cook the steaks. By thawing your steaks out this way, you will preserve the flavour and tenderness of the steaks.
For the best flavour and tenderness, we recommend that you cook the steaks within 6 months.
Chickens should not be refrozen if they are thawed. Once thawed, they can be refrigerated for up to 7 days
