A beef tenderloin or corned beef for example. Sometimes I buy ground beef and make it into hamburger size patties, then freeze it. Generally don't freeze fresh vegetables, might as well buy frozen to start. Most of what I freeze is food I prepare in batches, chili, short ribs, soup, etc. I use plastic jars for the chili, soup, etc. Plastic bags for the short ribs. I use more jars or similar containers, eg saved sour cream containers that bags. I have an extra freezer in my basement for storage.       > I don't consider plastic bags a bad idea, just that you have to be careful or the cost of the bag will take away your savings on the purchase.   > I was about to abandon this group until I see your post. > Thanks again for stating your opinion.   Happy to oblige. Sounds like we do very similar things.
