Sometimes, but by refreezing you will negatively affect the cell structure of the meat because when the ice crystals in the meat expands it will rupture more cells. This will destroy the texture of the chicken. The second reason is because there are now larger water pockets in the meat from the first freeze these will greatly expand and rip through the cell membranes. And the third reason is increased chance in spoilage. Many people thaw meat on the counter and not in the refrigerator. As a result microorganisms have had a chance to start doing what they do best, and that's spoil the meat. When you refreeze and thaw again these microorganisms are just going to multiply again.
If it has been thawed under refrigeration and is still good quality, yes. But the meat will not be as good with a second freeze. A better suggestion might be to cook it, then freeze it.
Anything that you have cooked and put into the refrigerator should only be good for 7 days then it will make you sick, but you really should eat it with in 2 or 3 days.
No. You should never refreeze raw meats. You can, however, cook the pork chops and then freeze them.
Possible, but not recommended due to possible bacteria growth and change in texture. However, if you defrost raw pork, then cook it, you may then refreeze it.

Yes but the pork is already preserved by salting. Once taken from the freezer do not refreeze.
yes, I have slow cooked pork butt, shredded it and frozen it. It comes back fine, if slowly thawed
The information I have found stipulates 30 day shelf life.
According to the USDA, once food is thawed in the refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze it without cooking, although there may be a loss of quality due to the moisture lost through defrosting. After cooking raw foods which were previously frozen, it is safe to freeze the cooked foods. No, you should not refreeze meat once it has been thawed.
8. Exactly 8. No more though, that would be silly. Although sausages you can do 9 times.

It was too warm for the ice to refreeze. One the meat had thawed, they did not think it would be safe to refreeze it.
The instructions specifically said not to refreeze the food.We have decided to refreeze you, we do not believe you have showed enough remorse to be allowed back into society.
