While researching meat delivery services, I stumbled upon a thread full of mixed reviews about Good Chop. It surprised me, as I’d heard good things about the brand for years.
The situation piqued my interest. I’ve heard friends and fellow editors rave about Good Chop for years – its USDA graded beef, responsibly raised pork, and sustainable seafood have earned it a spot in countless “best meat delivery” lists (including our own). Plus, I was already in the market for a meat subscription service, so I decided to see for myself whether Good Chop still delivers the same quality and experience it’s known for.
Admittedly Impressive First Impressions
From the moment my box arrived, I understood how Good Chop earned its name. The packaging was cold, clean, and thoughtfully done: everything vacuum-sealed, labeled, and still frozen solid. I went with the Medium plan, which lets you build a custom box of up to 14 lbs of meat (think ribeyes, ground beef, chicken breasts, and a few seafood picks).
The highlight was the thick-cut ribeye, a new addition to their lineup that instantly elevates the experience. It’s rich, buttery, and the kind of steak that makes you pause mid-bite to appreciate the marbling.
Up Next: The Taste Test
I cooked my way through the box over two weeks: seared ribeyes, juicy chicken thighs, and a quick midweek salmon dinner. Every cut was flavorful, tender, and noticeably higher quality than what I’d find at my local grocery store.
There’s something reassuring about knowing where your meat comes from. Good Chop works exclusively with American farms and fisheries with high animal welfare and sustainability standards. It even made me realize I have no clue where my grocery store meat comes from – something I’d honestly never thought about until now. That commitment to quality and transparency has remained strong throughout the years.
And Now, A Note on the Noise
Every brand goes through growing seasons — and Good Chop is no exception. What stood out to me, though, is how the company continues to focus on what it does best: delivering high-quality, responsibly sourced meat right to your door.
When you strip away the internet chatter, what you see is a brand that’s listening, learning, and refining the experience — all while keeping quality at the center of everything it does. And in a market where most “premium” meat services are just okay, that’s a big deal!
Final Takeaway: Still Worth It
Good Chop continues to raise the bar for what meat delivery can be (and honestly, might even be better than before). The brand has earned its reputation for a reason, proof that real quality doesn’t fade, it evolves.
The internet moves fast, but Good Chop is clearly focused on the long game. With an even wider range of cuts to choose from, it feels like the brand is entering its comeback era — and it’s worth paying attention. Because when it comes to quality and flavor, I found that Good Chop definitely still delivers.
