RE: Freezing Meat - How Many Times Can You Freeze It?Post By Matt Boersma (Guest Post) (09/25/2008) I work at a butchter shop and a lot of the time meat comes in frozen. As for like pork and beef which is made into sausages/hamburger/patties you have to thaw is enough to work through the grinder which in turn you mix spices into and make the product. You then freeze those sausages/hamburger/patties for customers. When you go to cook it you in turn thaw it out or as I do, put it on the grill frozen.

A lot of people who hunt their own venison will get it in fresh/frozen(depends if it is really cold outside) and in turn we put it in the cooler to thaw. You then cut it and freeze it. Many months later people will bring in left-over meet to be put into sausages. You then must thaw it and work it into the grinder and freeze it again. Then to actually eat it you have to thaw it again to cook it.

Think about it...if the meat smells bad and looks green(I don't know of any green eggs and ham to be in existence) don't eat haha. That's the general rule of life isn't

If frozen fish thaws can it be frozen again?

No, frozen is frozen. But you can refreeze something that has been thawed. You can refreeze thawed meat long as there are still ice crystals on it. Once completely thawed then you need to cook it first then refreeze. This applies to solid pieces only, ground meat once more than half thawed needs to be cooked first then refrozen always.

If your meat has been thawed and refrozen is it still good?

If the meat stays below room temperature (for instance, if you have thawed it in the refrigerator) and it is quickly put back into the freezer, you can refreeze the meat with little effect on the texture and flavor of the meat. If the meat has been thawed for a day or more, or gets warmer than refrigerator temperature, it is best to cook it and then refreeze.

Can you refreeze rib roast after cooking it?

Yes, of course you can if it has been handled sensibly. The safety will depend on proper handling. See a USDA or agricultural extension service site for proper food handling instructions. The quality will suffer. it will tend to dryness more after the second thawing and will benefit from a brine soak and marinade before roasting. If you can use it in a sauce you will have better results.
