Steak Preparation Guide

All Bayside Foods meats are vacuum sealed to keep them fresh

and flavorful for up to 1 year in your freezer. While storing, they should be kept as close as possible to 0º Fahrenheit.

THAWING: For best results and ease of cooking, all meats should be completely thawed in their original wrapper in the refrigerator. Allow 8-10 hours per pound for all our products to defrost. Steaks can also be cooked from frozen. Allow approximately 2 minutes additional cooking time per side. You can also carefully defrost in a microwave. Be careful not to overdefrost.

COOKING: If possible, turn your steaks just once. They will be ready to turn when the meat juices start to bubble up through the meat to the top of the steak.

To test for doneness, press the meat with your finger. Rare meat will be soft and very tender, medium will have a springy firmness, well done will feel very firm.

Lobster Tails – Cooking Instructions

Thaw tails under cool running tap water and refrigerate until ready to bake. Preheat oven to 400 degrees, split top of shell lengthwise, separate meat from shell, allowing tail portion to remain attached. Place meat on top of shell “piggy-back “ style. Brush meat with butter, garlic, lemon juice or white wine. Then sprinkle with paprika if desired. Pour small amount of water into baking pan. Place tails in pan and bake.

Baking time will vary according to size of tail and the heating characteristics of individual ovens. 6,7 & 8 oz. tails should take approximately 8 minutes in a conventional oven. As soon as the flesh turns white from translucent, tails are done.

Please note if you would like to BBQ the tails on a grill, we recommend that you pull the meat completely out of the shell and cook directly on a clean surface.

Cook on a low flame for more control while waiting for flesh to turn white.

Enjoy!
