NOTE:
When freezing minced beef, shape it into flat even sizes.
For chicken pieces, steaks and chops, freeze separately in single flat layers and if necessary interleave with freezer plastic
to separate layers. This will ensure
even defrosting.
It is also a good idea to label the packs with the correct weights.
