Seal Fresh beef and pork packaging maintains freshness longer, helping prevent food waste

What’s for dinner? This age-old question can cause stress on busy weeknights as we run from activity to activity. But it doesn’t need to be complicated! Here at Lunds & Byerlys, we are excited to introduce you to our new Seal Fresh beef and pork. It’s the same incredible offerings you know and love from our Meat & Seafood cases, now expertly packaged to maintain superior freshness and flavor. Beef and pork are dinnertime staples. They’re savory, satisfying, and easy to work with, and now, with our new Seal Fresh packaging, you’ll be able to easily keep a few extra cuts in the freezer for when other provisions have dwindled.

Ready When You Are

For years we’ve carried Seal Fresh ground beef in our stores, and customers have expressed their appreciation for the overall freshness and quality of the product. And now we’re excited to introduce that same special airtight packaging to our other cuts of premium beef and pork. We rely on the airtight packaging to help maintain longlasting freshness in the refrigerator. Plus, if your dinner plans suddenly change, the airtight packaging will allow for more flexibility—and your items won’t go bad before you can use them. Seal Fresh packaging is also freezer ready! Items can easily be moved to the freezer without repackaging and they defrost easily.

A Smart Choice

We also appreciate the airtight Seal Fresh packaging as it helps us combat food waste. Our goal is to always feed people first and avoid food waste whenever possible. This new packaging allows us to help play a part in eliminating some food waste from the waste stream—and it’s the same for you at home! Since the airtight packaging keeps beef and pork fresh and flavorful in the fridge for much longer, that means you can avoid throwing out spoiled items.

Your Favorite Cuts

Look for our new Seal Fresh packaging on your favorite cuts of beef and premium pork in our Meat & Seafood departments. We’ll have everything from New York strip steaks and porterhouse steaks to short ribs and ground beef, plus pork chops and roasts, ribs, and much more.

Whether you’re looking for something to make for dinner tonight, later this week, or next month, our Seal Fresh beef and pork products are the perfect choice to answer the question, “What’s for dinner?”

How to Cook the Perfect Steak

Follow these simple steps to make a perfectly seared, perfectly juicy steak every time— no grill required!

1. Season: Heat oven to 350°F. Meanwhile, on the stovetop, heat a 12-inch cast iron skillet over medium heat until hot. Pat steaks dry and season heavily with salt and pepper. Place steaks in hot skillet.

2. Sear: Sear steaks for 4 minutes, turning once. Do not turn until the steak releases from the skillet on its own. If the steak is sticking to the skillet, it is not ready to turn.

3. Cook: Place skillet into the 350°F oven for 10 to 15 minutes, depending on desired doneness. Turn once, halfway through the cooking time.

4. Check Temperature: Remove skillet from the oven when internal temperature reaches 120°F for rare, 130°F for medium-rare, and 140°F for medium doneness. Always use a thermometer to determine doneness.

5. Tent: Remove steaks from skillet and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let stand for 5 to 10 minutes before serving. (Its temperature will continue to rise about 5°F ).
