Freezing Meat Without Freezer Burn - Course 202

Meat Wrapping, Part 1

Never Again Throw Out Expensive Meats from Freezer Burn

The following method is called a "roll wrap." After you've wrapped two or three packages, you'll be an expert.

As a historical note, there was also a "drug store wrap" that some locker plants used. The drug store wrap made a neater looking package, but it took a bit longer and wasn't practical except in wrapping hamburger, or somewhat square and rectangular cuts of meat.

Take off any and all store wrappings.
Starting out at the bottom left-hand corner of the plastic food wrap, place the larger end of the meat to the right, as in the photo.
Tightly pull the corner of the plastic wrap over the meat, while holding the wrap down with the other hand.
Fold the plastic wrap tightly against the right edge of the meat and pull the lower right hand corner of the wrap over the meat .
While maintaining a tight pressure, roll the meat forward one turn .
Tightly fold the left side of the wrap against the meat and tightly pull the wrap over the meat.
