Also, for me it's only me and the old lady and we're both old. I like to smoke stuff but most good stuff to smoke is like lbs of meat. We can't eat that much before it goes bad. I tend to make 3 times as much as I need and freeze 2/3rds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 6 hours ago, negolien said: I also do more than I need I purchased a vacuum sealer for bags and it's saved me a ton of money My vacuum sealers are probably one of the most used tools in my kitchen. I mostly use them commercially but like you, I also use them to save/freeze leftover food. They are also good when applying overnight rubs and also when cooking sous vide. Among the main advantages of vac packing food for the frezer It reduces the air (oxygen) around the food and so reduces the rate ofย spoilage It prevents the loss of water through evapouration (especially when in the freezer) and prevents freezer burn It allows you to pack and freeze liquids (soups, sauces, marinades etc.) flat in bags which will then stack more efficiently in the freezer Split up large bulk packs of food (e.g. chicken pieces, sausages etc.) into portion size quanties before freezing If you can stretch to a chamber vacuum sealer then that is great however there are some really good side-suck ones available now for around ยฃ100 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AdamG Posted July 7 Share Posted July 7 I was eyeing up one of the ink bird vacuum sealers a while back, only a basic one but seems like a good place to start 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wade Posted July 18 Share Posted July 18 There is no such thing as "leftovers" - only "saved-to-contine-enjoying-laters" 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
