So last night my almost 5 YO DS put away the ice cream but somehow the door to the freezer got stuck open and everything, EVERYTHING, is thawed out now. Most of my chicken is in the other freezer but this one had most of my beef. We were down to just about 10 pounds ground beef so I can make meatballs, etc to freeze but I have no clue what to do about all the roasts and steaks. Anyone have any suggestions? I don't normally cook those ahead and am kind of a loss on how to proceed. Can I just cook up the roast as per usual and then cool and freeze it? what about the flank and round steak? or typical 'grill steak'? same deal on that? Normally I'd use the flank and round steak for fajitas and steak salad, would I actually marinate or season it then or just cook it plain and freeze with the thought of seasoning when I'm ready to use it?
Everything is still cold but thawed so I need to cook and refreeze it today if I'm going to be able to salvage anything. Anyone that has any ideas on what to do with the roasts or steaks I would be ever so grateful. I am really, really trying not to totally lose it here!!
I have lots of recipes but I'm not used to cooking to freeze plus this caught me totally off guard and I'm feeling quite scattered and unprepared!
thanks in advance for any help!
