When delivered on time and retrieved within 6-8 hours of delivery, your Cambridge Creek Ranch order should arrive refrigerator cold (below 40 degrees Fahrenheit as measured with a food thermometer). We recommend checking the internal temperature of any meat that isn't solid and discard of any meat that isn't at a safe temperature. Any meats that are delivered refrigerator cold, partly frozen (solid), or frozen can be placed in the freezer for later use or defrosted and cooked as normal. Any meat that is exactly at or above 40 degrees Fahrenheit should be discarded immediately.
