How to Update Your Delivery Address or Contact Info for Meat Delivery

By Anna Smith

When you're dealing with premium, pre-cooked meats that arrive frozen and ready to heat, getting your delivery address right isn't just about convenience—it's about food safety and quality. A misdirected package of our Texas Smoked Brisket or Japanese Teriyaki Chicken sitting on a warm porch for hours isn't just disappointing; it's a food safety risk. Let me walk you through exactly how to keep your delivery information current so your next meal arrives perfectly.

Why Address Accuracy Matters More with Meat Delivery

Unlike a book or clothing order, meat delivery involves temperature control and timing. Our products—from the Wagyu Sirloin Steak to the Pollo Asado Chicken Thigh—are shipped frozen in insulated packaging with cold storage partners that maintain strict temperature protocols. If your address is wrong, that package might sit in a delivery truck longer than intended or end up at the wrong location, compromising the safety and quality of your meat.

The food safety principle here is simple: Frozen meat must stay frozen. Any thaw-and-refreeze cycle risks bacterial growth and texture degradation. That's why updating your address promptly protects both your investment and your family's health.

Step-by-Step Process for Updating Your Information

1. Log Into Your Account First

The most reliable way to update your details is through your online account. This ensures changes sync with our fulfillment system immediately. Look for the "Account" or "Profile" section, typically found in the upper right corner of the website.

2. Navigate to Shipping Addresses

Within your account dashboard, you'll find a section labeled "Addresses," "Shipping Information," or "Delivery Details." Here you can:

  • Add a new address
  • Edit an existing one
  • Set a default shipping address

Pro tip: If you're ordering for a vacation rental or family member's home temporarily, add it as a secondary address rather than changing your primary. This prevents future orders from going to the wrong place.

3. Update Contact Information Separately

Your phone number and email are critical for delivery notifications. Our cold storage partners use these to alert you when your order arrives. Update these in the "Contact Information" or "Account Details" section. Make sure to include:

  • A working phone number (carrier drivers may call for gate codes or delivery instructions)
  • An email you check regularly (for tracking updates and delivery windows)

4. Check Your Upcoming Orders

After updating your address, review any pending orders. Some systems require you to manually assign the new address to orders already in the pipeline. Look for an "Edit Order" or "Change Shipping" option on each order.

5. Confirm the Change

After submitting, you should receive a confirmation email. If you don't see one within 15 minutes, check your spam folder or contact customer support. This verification step is your safety net.

When to Contact Customer Support Directly

Sometimes account changes aren't enough. Reach out directly if:

  • Your order has already shipped (address changes may require carrier intervention)
  • You need to change delivery instructions (like "leave in shade" or "use side gate")
  • You're updating information for a recurring subscription or auto-ship order

When you call, have your order number and new address ready. Our team can coordinate with cold storage partners to reroute packages when possible—but timing is everything. Once a package is in transit, rerouting becomes much harder.

Timing Is Everything: When to Make Changes

For best results, update your address at least 48 hours before your scheduled shipment. This gives our fulfillment team time to update labels and coordinate with carriers. Changes made within 24 hours of shipping may not take effect.

If you realize an error after shipment, don't panic. Track your package immediately and contact customer support. We can often arrange for the carrier to hold the package at a local facility for pickup, or redirect it to a nearby address if absolutely necessary.

What Happens If a Delivery Goes Wrong?

Despite best efforts, mistakes happen. If your meat arrives at the wrong address or sits out too long:

  1. Check the temperature immediately. If the meat is still cold to the touch and ice crystals remain, it's likely safe. Our pre-cooked products are fully cooked, which adds a margin of safety—but don't push it.
  2. Document the issue. Take photos of the packaging and the product's condition.
  3. Contact us right away. We stand behind our products and will work to make it right, whether that means a replacement or credit.

A Final Word on Planning Ahead

The beauty of our products—from the Brazilian Garlic Steak to the Carolina Smoked Chicken Thigh—is their convenience. They're pre-cooked, pre-seasoned, and ready in minutes. But that convenience depends on proper delivery. Take two minutes to verify your address before each order, especially if you've moved, are traveling, or are shipping to a different location.

When your package arrives correctly, you're minutes away from a meal that brings your family together. That's the whole point—mealtime joy without the stress. Keep your information current, and let us handle the rest.
