"FOOT DOWN........."
- Thread starter Luckytrim
- Start date
When we do a beef or hog I always bring in boxes and crates and empty out the old stuff so the new goes in behind or in the bottom of the chest freezers.On the uprights I usually dedicate a shelf to the new beef and then make sure to use the old stuff first. The other thing is I started dating all the stuff we vac seal. This helps with veggies a lot.
I just dfid that for about the last few months or so.
Now, just about all that is left in there (the deep freezer) is a large fresh pork shoulder, a small little bag of assorted meats and a drumstick.
I'll make SOMETHING with that. Maybe a potluck dinner or something. I'll go buy some more meat at the end of the month.
an industrial vacu-sealer is a great item. i've lost 2 strip steaks & 4 filets to my fridge. in a few wks. many fresh veggies, too.
btw, my vacuum sealer is dusty & i could not get that thing shut half the time. & i lost the plastic to cut into bags. this is why it's now dusty. luv the cryovacs we used in school/work.

It's a MUST!!!
If you don't want your food to suffer from freezer burn, it is one of the best things to invest in!!!

I'm trying to do the same thing. We have three refrigs and two big freezers. One of the refrigs is my daughters. I'm sick and tired of trying to keep everything in order. Order to DH today. We will eat down all of those before buying much of anything else especially since we grow veggies.
