How long will Roast keep if frozen?

Question

I have a roast in the freezer that I would truly hate to lose. How long can you keep roast as long as its frozen until use? I guess the best way to phrase it perhaps is how far past the due date can I keep this? Or how long from the date of its cutting and packaging can it last?

Answer 1

I'd say about 3 months. I hate freezer burned meat!

Answer 2

Because freezing keeps food safe indefinitely, your roast can stay in the freezer for as long as you like. However, to maintain quality, a fresh beef roast can be stored frozen (0 degrees Fahrenheit) from 4 to 12 months from the date of purchase - it's okay if the meat expires during its frozen months. The time range depends on the quality of packaging. Proper packaging helps maintain quality and prevent "freezer burn." It is safe to freeze meat or poultry directly in its supermarket wrapping but this type of wrap is permeable to air. Unless you will be using the food in a month or two, overwrap these packages as you would any food for long-term storage using airtight heavy-duty foil, (freezer) plastic wrap or freezer paper, or place the package inside a (freezer) plastic bag.

Answer 3

You can keep it in the freezer up to 1 year IF it is wrapped right before it gets freezer burnt. I know, we have been doing that for a long time now.

Answer 4

on my foodsaver it says without a vacumn seal roast can last fully froizen for up to six months. I am sure thats depending on how it is wrapped and frozen. growing up my parents would buy full beefs and they would keep it frozen in a deep freeze for like a year

Answer 6

If your talking about a whole unthawed out turkey about 6 months as long as your freezer is working properly

Answer 7
