Temu Is Selling Meat—Yes, Really

Jessica Biel Reveals the Fast Food Chain She Won't Let Her Kids Eat

Where's the beef? Apparently, it's at Temu.

The online retailer known for selling heavily discounted goods shipped from China is now offering a selection of meats—including ribeye steaks, pork chops, waygu burger patties and bacon—ready to be delivered to your door.

The products are shipped from a "local warehouse" by Grumpy Butcher, a U.S.-based premium frozen food company that also distributes to Amazon and Walmart, per its Temu listing.

In fact, the brand is Temu's first seller of frozen foods.

"We had our first order the very next day after launching on Temu," Grumpy Butcher founder Denys Gorbatiuk said in a 2025 profile with Temu. "Orders started flooding in and, funny enough, I found myself packing Temu boxes by hand with my warehouse team."

Gorbatiuk said 12 percent of the company's online sales came from Temu alone within just weeks of its June 2025 launch on the e-commerce website. The exposure also tapped into a new audience.

“Historically, more than 50 percent of our customers have been over 55," Gorbatiuk said. "But on Temu, we're suddenly reaching millennials and Gen Zers."

He added, "We're hiring just to keep up with Temu orders."

Gorbatiuk also assures that the meat products are carefully packed to ensure freshness. As he explained an episode of the Future Commerce podcast last year, there were "many, many requirements by the government."

"Everything gets delivered to your doorsteps one or two days later," he said. "You cannot beat that."

As of December, Gorbatiuk said 19 to 20 percent of his company's sales were from Temu, with many "loyal customers" going back for seconds and thirds.

"I just recently saw that just the other day, there was a person who bought 25 purchases," he shared. "Different items, 25 different purchases."

"I am snacking so much while I've been at home! I think it's because I'm home and near my fridge all day. I slice up an apple and it fills me up between meals. I love the satisfying crunch and so do my kids."

"My go-to snack is canned oysters. I know that might sound weird, but I am absolutely obsessed with canned oysters. They are such a good source of protein, magnesium and vitamin C. They are so tasty and always fill me up. I eat them straight out of the can, but sometimes if I want some extra carbs, I'll eat them with crackers and the crunch of the cracker with the soft oyster is so good!"

"I always have a cup of fruit near me, usually with grapes or berries. For drinks, I like homemade green juice. I mix in BODYARMOR Lyte, Coconut for some sweetness and flavor without having to worry about sugar."

"Avocado with salt. It's the right amount of indulgent with being super easy to make. If I have more time I'll add a poached egg with a smidge of hot sauce from Big Reds."

"Apples and peanut butter but not just your average apples and peanut butter, folks. There is a science to this special snack. First, they have to be honeycrisp apples, cut very thin. Then you get your peanut butter, melt it, add some honey and stir all the deliciousness together! This creates almost like a caramel consistency. You don't use nearly as much peanut butter and you avoid getting it on your thumb every time you dip. Brilliant, I know!"

"My go-to snack at the moment is going to sound so strange: I like to take a flour tortilla with salted butter melted in a pan and then I top it with Nutella. I know it's weird! LOL, it's honestly like an easier version of a crêpe and that's why I love it."
