Mrs. hooky tells me it is (was?) on sale at Meijer for 50% off.

Current freezer situation is 9 more packages in our collection.
My ex stoker’s dad had a heart attack and died a few years back. Was a big hunter. I’ve never seen a more impressive freezer than that man had in his basement. It was massive. Every kind of meat and fish conceivable. Just perfectly stacked, dated. It was unreal.

After he died she sold the house a year or so later. We didn’t go over there after for months. During that time we forgot to pay the electric bill. Opened the door and it was like what the Texas chainsaw massacre must have been. Floor covered in leaked blood. Walls of maggots

Dude, the first and only rule in that scenario is "secure the meat" FFS. May the spirit of that great man haunt you in perpetuity.
 
Rookie question here: does bacon freeze well?
I've never had an issue freezing any kind of meat. Fish needs to be used in the same year, assuming it's packaged correctly, but I've pulled roasts out of the freezer after 2 years and it looked like it just went in. That's the downside to chest freezers. Easy for things to get lost and end up on the bottom. Gotta vac pac everything to make sure it lasts.

Tips on defrosting? Natural thaw overnight?
 
Screw that. Throw it in the sink. Fry in the morning. What are we doing?

You're still cooking the food.... WTF does it matter? I could see this if we're talking about maybe a steak or something that's only going to get seared...

If you are thawing it on the counter or in the sink in the vacuum sealed packaging used for bacon, it shouldn't be a problem. That's different than thawing (say) a steak in one of those flimsy porous styrofoam trays with a little low budget shrink wrap over it.
 
total truff! hundred percent! Even though I was monitoring temp, with data to support. The bitch threw away a $130 cut of meat. total 100% Menopause explosion.
She can keep her new toyota, but she gone !!!
You guys are not going to believe this,but. My upcoming divorce was finally triggered by an argument over counter top thawing. Not kidding.
Didn’t you just get fired from your job? If so now is a great time for a divorce

You know what, disregard my previous post. If the bitch threw away 130 dollars worth of meat, she was asking for it.

It’s gotta be pretty funky before I’ll throw that much meat out.

Asshole, sure I can own that. THEY (her and the crack head daughter) simply used that as the first attack of the day. It was planned and coordinated as they planned on moving out 2 days later. These coordinated attack (not exaggerating!) have been going on for 5 yrs and have helped to add to my assholeness here. When I offered a simple compromise, I was still cooking it and will eat it all myself hiding it from anyone even knowing that it existed, even if it takes 6 months, that still wasn't good enough and they just yelled louder.
Since that didn't get me riled up as planned, they waited a few hours and brought their last blitzkreg.
Asshole, sure I'll own that. I hope you never have to deal with what I have the last 5+ years, because you are a saint and don't deserve it. I'll pray for you.

You can't talk shit about me on the Premie and then just come in here and participate in my bacon thread like nothing happened. I took the high road and let you slide Friday night in chat.

Get out of this thread and up on the sidewalk where you belong, dweeb.

The crack daughter sounds intriguing. I'm guessing mid-30s? What does she read?
