FAQ’S

In a word, quality. Did you know it takes 8 pounds of Creamline whole milk to make 1 pound of THE BIG MOO? No mass-produced milk for THE BIG MOO; we use only local milk from small family farms in Wisconsin with no added growth hormones. We hand-make each block in small batches so we can assure every block is cheese perfection. 

And, we're shipping this product cold via 2 Day Express in environmentally sensitive packaging, ensuring it arrives at your home as fresh as the day we made it.

We recommend the skillet, grill, air fryer, or oven, but the microwave works well in a pinch. The key is to use medium heat and flip the cheese occasionally. The outside should develop a sear or crust while the inside heats evenly to an internal temperature of 155-165 degrees Fahrenheit.

You can; however, we don’t recommend it. Cooking brings out the true flavor and texture of THE BIG MOO.

You should put your cheese in the refrigerator as soon as it arrives. The only exceptions are if you want to freeze it or if you just can’t wait. In that case, just heat and eat it immediately (we get it!).
