Freezing Meat and Poultry

I watched my Momma buy a package of ground beef and divide it up into meal portion.

When prices started to raise dramatically, I search the web on the best way yo freeze meat.

This is what I found. Freezer paper and freezer bags. I got these at Target because at the time that was cheapest place to buy them. I have the Redcard that pulls from my checking account and it saves me 5% on everything. But I digress.

I buy ground beef at the best price in bulk and divide into one pound packages ( yes I use my mailing scale). I use a permanent marker on the doubled over top layer to remind my self what I have. It thens put into ziplock bag and zipped closed.

I do chicken the same way. I know what I’m making most of the time with the chicken so dividing it up is easy.

Please note - be sure you get the meat and chicken as flat as you can, so it thaws easier.
