WELCOME TO MY WEBSITE 👨‍🍳

2/26/26

The challenging winter aside- I’m envisioning a robust 2026. I’ve brought in many new items recently, and there’s more to come. It’s an exciting time at Chef Michaels. 

A major highlight is my selection of premium fresh/frozen fish. I have established a relationship with a stellar fish market in North Jersey. Steelhead Trout (pictured here) is my latest addition. I select this superb fish in its pristine, fresh state and then vacuum-seal and freeze the fillets that day. This technique ensures a level of quality not seen in the general marketplace. It’s not even close!

The American Red Snapper, Bronzini, Lemon Sole, New Zealand Pink Snapper, Atlantic Salmon, and Icelandic Cod are also part of this growing selection.

To see these and all my new items, go to MENU and scroll down.

To my regular and new customers, thank you so much for your business. To potential new customers, welcome to my site. If you have comments or questions, text me at 908-415-0252.

Thanks and God Bless!👨‍🍳😊

 Hi- I’m Michael Guessefeld, and I own/operate Chef Michael’s Home Delivery.

I’m on a mission, using my extensive Chef experience, to procure the best products for your home. The term “best” is not set in stone; it’s an ever-evolving benchmark that prioritizes quality above everything else. But there are other considerations. Along with quality is convenience. Any product I deliver should be easy to prepare, thereby making your life easier. 

The next consideration is consistency. This is a challenge to maintain and requires rigorous attention, especially when artisan talent is involved. Allow me to explain. My favorite products are those made by talented “professional” culinarians. In every case, these Chefs either own a restaurant, deli, butcher shop, or another professional foodservice establishment with a board of health-inspected commercial kitchen. I then purchase their handiwork for my customers. I get excited when a new talent is discovered, and I can provide my customers with an edgy new product. But those “artisan” products need constant oversight to ensure the high standards are maintained. So, every time I buy a batch of these products, I test them myself for quality assurance. This is a joy to be sure.

Examples of these products include Polish Apple Pancakes and their sister Polish Potato Pancakes, made at an authentic Polish Deli. Another highly praised Deli makes the Bratwurst and Spanikopita Chicken Meatballs. An old-world Italian Deli/Market produces both Italian Meatballs and Gluten-Free Meatballs. A Crab company near Philly makes all of my Crab Cakes and Shrimp Cakes. I make a few items as well. My Gourmet Mac/Cheese as well as the Brie with a Fig/Walnut Jam, wrapped in Pastry. 

But I also have processed items like Breaded Italian Chicken Cutlets, Breaded Chicken Fingers, Tortilla Tilapia with Chipotle and Lime, Cheesesteak Egg Rolls, and Vegetable Spring Rolls. I’m excited when I find “excellent” processed items because they’re delicious and super consistent. Also, these items are mega easy to work with and very popular.

Some people don’t like an abundance of ingredients and avoid processed foods, and that’s fine. I have a full spectrum of products, something for everyone. What all my menu items have in common: they’ve passed my taste test, and I consider them worthy of your freezer.

This brings me to my new passion. Every week, I go to a premium Fish Market in North Jersey. I love this place, and as a Chef, I appreciate the skill and experience of a seasoned Fish Monger. No supermarket can match the quality of this fresh fish, not even close. I select my American Red Snapper, Bronzini, Lemon Sole, Atlantic Salmon, New Zealand Pink Snapper, Steelhead Trout, and Icelandic Cod. Then, that same day, all the fish is portioned, vacuum-sealed, and frozen in its pristine condition. I get excited even writing about this. 

The quest to find new products for your freezer is never-ending. Whether you’ve been with me for 14 years or are a new customer, thank you so much for your business. If you’re reading this and would like to see my products, I would love to stop by and present a no-obligation demonstration. If you give me 15-20 minutes, I can give you a thorough grasp of my product line. Please text me at
908-415-0252, and we can set up a visit or phone conversation to answer any questions you might have. Thank you and have a blessed day!

With Chef Michael’s the store is coming to you!

I’m very proud of my business and I would suggest that my products have a qualitative edge that separate them from like products found in the mainstream marketplace.

For instance, my Mac+Cheese has Fontina, Pecorino Romano, and Parmigiano Reggiano cheeses included in its high-end ingredient roster. 

I have French delicacies like Calves Brains and Veal Sweetbreads. My Brie in Pastry with a Rosemary infused Fig Jam has a clever culinary edge and it goes on like that. I’m always working on improvement and would love to bring my passion for culinary excellence to your home.

If you have questions/comments, want to order product, or would like a 15 minute presentation of my products please reach out to me. I look forward to hearing from you. Texts are the best 908-415-0252
