Reduced Shipping Costs

Many of our ingredients are perishable and therefore by necessity, require FEDEX Standard Overnight shipping. There is no way around it - it's costly, and understanding shipping calculations practically requires a degree in actuary science!

In order to help defray your cost of shipping, we have incorporated shipping discounts for many of our finer ingredients. These ingredients are noted on the web site and the discounts will be automatically calculated when the ingredient is added to your cart. These discounts are cumalitive, so you could end up with very low or no shipping charges. (dependant on your location)

The best part is that you might as well add that extra pound of mushrooms, a bottle of truffle oil, some pasta or your favorite "pantry staples" because the shipping costs may not even change!

Artisan/History/Story

Cervena is internationally recognized for quality standards. From the pristine hills of the isle of Rotorua (meaning “bay of plenty”) in northern New Zealand, the prized Cervena designation is only given to deer and elk roaming natural farmlands of 200 to 2000 acres, without hormones or steroids, and aged no more than three years. The deer are allowed to graze freely and are grass-fed. This designation was developed by dedicated ranchers to ensure the highest quality standards. (This is the "Champagne" of venison). Top chefs recognize the difference in the CERVENA label, so will you.

How to Prep/Store

You will receive your Cervena strip loin FRESH, never frozen!  Each premium strip loin has an excellent shelf life. It will hold well in the refrigerator for two weeks unopened and up to two years in the freezer. (Note that proper thawing techniques should be used). We recommend the use of a vacuum sealer with heavy duty bags if you choose to freeze. Venison is a naturally lean meat so TAKE CARE to not OVERCOOK. Sear lightly to seal in juices and flavor then finish in oven. Or fire up the grill--just keep an eye on this fabulous meat! It cooks quickly and is at its best served no more than medium rare.

Recipe Ideas

Season lightly with fresh salt and ground pepper and then sear in HOT skillet or hot section of grill to seal in flavor. Finish in 350-degree oven (or on a cooler section of your grill) to rare or medium rare. Remove and let REST. Carve for your guests and enjoy with a nice Pinot Noir or Shiraz. Just a word of warning, don't overcook--this fabulous meat will quickly become tough and unappealing. If you choose to carve into strip steaks be even more watchful.
