From the USDA fact sheet on meat preparation: focus on ground beef: "For longer freezer storage, wrap in heavy duty plastic wrap, aluminum foil, freezer paper, or plastic bags made for freezing. Ground beef is safe indefinitely if kept frozen, but will lose quality over time. It is best if used within 4 months. Mark your packages with the date they were placed in the freezer so you can keep track of storage times." (http://www.fsis.usda.gov/Fact_Sheets/ground_beef_and_food_safety/index.asp)
