Meat can usually be kept in the freezer for 6 months if it is vacuum sealed, without getting freezer burned. Meat can get spoiled in the freezer, it just takes longer. One thing to keep in mind is to try to prevent any air in your packaging because it will "burn". Never freeze your meat in the supermarket packaging longer than 2 weeks.

Most meats will keep about 6 months in the freezer, as long as it is well-sealed and doesn't become freezer burnt.
Some meats will keep closer to 12 months.
As long as they stay frozen, they will never spoil/go rotten, but after too long, the meats might not taste quite right, that 'freezer-y' taste.

Depends. Usually 6monhs to a year. If its plaing meat uncooked and wrapped well 1 year. If its cooked meat on its own 6 months. If the meat is mixed with things 3 months. Seafood should only be frozen for 6 months.

well basically frozen foods are safe, as long as they are kept frozen all the time. but if you go for quality and flavour in the meat, then it's best you follow the suitable storage times for different kinds of meat.
fresh meat can normally be kept for half a year to a year, unless the meat is already grounded or other special meat parts such as heart, liver etc.
processed meat can be kept for 1 to 2 months. probably has to do with preservatives in them.
and cooked meat or meat mixed with other stuff can be kept for 1 to 6 months.
there are other facts to learn about meat storage so i recommend you visit the website below. but it's best if you eat them asap. im sure the meat looks too good to leave it lying there untouched for so long. have a yummylicious time with your meat!

a very long time, but the cells tends to liquefy the longer you keep it in the freezer, making the meat less palatable.

Up to a year but it has to be well wrapped to protect it from freezer burn! ***
