Prior to refrigeration meat was generally stored in the form of live animals that were slaughtered when needed or sometimes in ice houses using ice harvested from lakes in the winter. Meats were also stored in dried forms (e.g. jerky), smoked forms (e.g. ham, bacon), heavily salted (e.g. salt pork), pickled, or by canning. Sometimes meat was stored by treatment with strong chemicals like lye (this was usually done only with certain very low fat meats because the soap produced in the reaction of lye and fat is very unpalatable!).
In the late 1800s when refrigeration became inexpensive and readily available meat packing plants (mostly in the Chicago area) packaged various cuts of meat and shipped them across the entire country in refrigerated rail cars to stores with refrigerated meat storage rooms.

NB As an aside during the trade embargo on South Africa (during Apartheid era), no oil was allowed to be imported into South Africa. However, South Africa had large reserves of coal. So South Africa developed SASOL. SASOL is the industrial conversion of coal to oil, so that oil burning furnaces could function. NNB Both oil and coal are hydro-carbons.
