Anyone use FREEZER PAPER when storing meat?

[CoyoteMagic]

I use freezer paper too. I like the freezer tape a bit better than masking tape. Seems to stick better for some reason. We then take the wrapped meat and put it in bigger freezer bags to separate beef, pork and chicken. The use of the 2 seems to do a really good job of keeping out freezer burn.

For long term storage we use our sealer if meat will be in there over a week or two. Otherwise we use freezer bags or platic containers which we have alot of, works gret for the dog food. When we use our freezer paper I always like it wrap in tinfoil afterward to keep it better. But with thing going as they are now FP is alot cheaper than anything else so we shall be sticking to that as much as we can for now.

Great thread lots of good info.

I've always used this method as well. Wrap the meat in either wax paper, plastic wrap or smaller zipper bags, then place all of those in a 2 gallon Freezer bag. I've never had freezer burn on anything and I can always find just the cut I'm looking for.

I used the shrink bags found here: http://www.cornerstone-farm.com/shrink_bags.htm for the first time this year. SO GREAT!! They are easy, thick, and make your birds look really nice. I'm going to stock up in case they stop selling them.
