Cooking Tip

Freezing Ground Beef

Make freezing ground beef (or any ground meat) easier by following a few simple tips:

• First purchase good quality quart-sized plastic freezer bags. Place only one pound in each bag. Flatten the meat to a thin layer in the bag. Press to remove as much air as possible. Seal. Freeze.

• This method allows the meat to be thoroughly defrosted in the microwave oven without the usual browning around the edges. It also allows for quick, safe freezing.
