Frequently Asked Questions

Do you have questions? We have your answers!

 

Products

Are you a producer of your meats?
No, we do not raise livestock. We work in partnership with local producers based on the many years of experience and networking of the chef-owner of the restaurant Hoogan and Beaufort, Marc-André Jetté.

Where do your meats come from?
All our meats come from producers in Quebec, except for some beef products that come from Prince Edward Island.

Is it more advantageous to order a box rather than an individual product?
Yes, a box will allow you to get several different cuts for a favorable price compared to buying an individual product. Moreover, the boxes allow for full utilization of the animal.

Can the contents of the boxes be customized?
No, the contents of the boxes are determined in advance according to the supply from our suppliers in order to fully utilize the animal.

What does "AAA" mean?
The term "AAA" comes from a classification of meat quality, where this quality is ranked in 4 categories: "A", "AA", "AAA" and "Prime". The more marbled the meat is, the tastier it will be, and the better it will be classified. At Édouard et Léo, only "AAA" and "Prime" grade products are offered.

What is dry-aged meat?
There are 3 ways to age meats: open air, dry, and vacuum-sealed. Dry aging is done in open air by controlling the humidity level of the environment, which allows the meat to tenderize and develop its flavor.

How long can I keep my meat in the freezer?
There is no risk in consuming frozen foods for too long if they are well packaged. However, their flavors and nutritional values deteriorate over time. Depending on the products, it is recommended to consume them within 3 to 6 months after freezing to maintain optimal quality.

What is the best way to thaw meat?
The safest way to thaw meat is in the refrigerator, 24 hours before consumption. Your meats will lose less water and keep their quality to the maximum. It is also possible to thaw meat in a cold water bath to speed up the process. However, it is preferable to cook it quickly after thawing to avoid bacterial growth.

How long can I keep my meat in the refrigerator before consuming it?
For optimal quality of our fresh products, it is best to consume or freeze them within 3 to 5 days after receipt. For a product that has just been thawed, consumption within 24 to 48 hours after thawing is recommended.

Do you perform the cutting and processing of all your meats?
Yes, all meat cuts and their processing are done by our master butchers and our chefs.

Are all your processed products homemade?
All processed products are homemade by our master butchers, chefs, and charcutiers.
