Cook & Freeze Bulk Meat Immediately
What I like about buying in bulk is that you don’t need to keep going to the store regularly to try to find good deals on meat. You can just freeze it, have it available, and not worry about needing to buy it at full price when you need it. I give credit to my husband’s family for this idea – I use it all the time!
Cook your ground beef in a stock pot with a little water, bake your chicken in the oven, put your pork in a crock pot and when its done, shred or chop it and freeze it. If you freeze it already cooked, in small ready-to-use meal-size packages it is convenient for you to quickly thaw and throw in your casserole or heat up to use in your tacos or sloppy jos!
It saves you a lot of time and money and dirty dishes!
