Question 1

Why are the cans always dented when I receive them?

Accepted Answer

There are two reasons the cans arrive dented.  First, Amazon has the worst, most unprofessionally managed shipping department in the online shopping space.  This is not to complain about the workers who do the packing, though they probably could do better on their own, but it is about their leadership and management.  If you set an expectation for your employees that materials are packaged for damage-free delivery, the employees would live up to those expectations.  The problem is that there are no such expectations set.  I wonder, in fact, if the expectations are wholly about speed - get it in the box and out the door - and that is why they put 4 cans of chicken in a huge box with something like a cast iron pan floating loosely as well.  It cracks me up when they do something like that  and then throw in a couple of the air-bubble things loosely as well.

The second reason that your cans always arrive damaged is that Keystone Meats cares no more about your satisfaction or the quality of your delivery than does Amazon.  I have contacted them many times asking them to offer their products on Amazon in full 12-can cases.  This would ensure that the cans are shipped in a box that is designed to hold them.  If you order a case directly from Keystone, they come in a box that holds them securely.  Keystone has repeatedly responded that they're not interested in selling by the case on Amazon; that if I want their products by the case I can order directly from them - and pay outrageous shipping costs to boot.

Unfortunately for their customers - but great for Keystone, Keystone is selling everything they can make in the current pandemic and global food scare.  It is certainly not a time they'll be interested in responding to customer needs - especially considering that they didn't care about you getting dented cans even before the pandemic.

My suggestion is reading up on how to can meats safely at home and canning your own.  We've  recently canned beef and pork and will be doing chicken next week.  It turns out to be  half the price of Keystone and at least equally as delicious.  Their indifference to the market place and to their customers has led to new opportunities to fill the gap on our own.

I came to this page tonight because, after a few years of hiatus on ordering Keystone, I tried it again for the past few months, hoping Amazon might have responded to the years of customer complaints.  After a few months of dented cans in my subscribe-and-save, I came here tonight to cancel once again.  We'll be canning our first chicken next week and, soon after, canning our first ground beef.  Assuming we're as successful as we were with beef and with pork, it will be a fantastic alternative to Keystone.

So, there's the truth about why your cans always arrive dented.

Question 2

What is the shelf life?

Accepted Answer

The "best used by" on the can was 5 years. But I assume that, like all canned foods, as long as the seal is not broken, it will last indefinitely. Though there may be some degradation of the quality of the food. But not the safety.

Question 3

Does anyone knows the net weight when product is drained? Thank you

Accepted Answer

The can says 28 oz and that there are 14 two ounce servings.   Sounds to me like there are 28 ounces of chicken but I can’t guarantee that. Thank you

Question 4

is this kosher certified?

Accepted Answer

I just read the entire label sadly I see nothing saying it's kosher certified. I do know the beef chunks that come in the can is Very Good Quality beef. Sorry I couldn't help you with the kosher certified question, you might find Keystone Canning Co. Contact Information on their sales page, I've communicated with my sellers all the time Be Well and successful in your search for the answer.
