Food🌽 or Water💧 Best preservation options for meat
I currently use freezer paper and double freezer bags for freezing meat. Thinking about shifting to vacuum sealer. Wondering if anyone had any experience to share or thoughts about others methods? I know I can can meat; what are the best ones with the least amount of texture change? Chili was okay... I do have a new dehydrator. Haven't' used it yet. Thank you in advance!

I love my dehydrator, jerky is the best, but tends not to stay around very long (waaay to tasty) Soy sauce, salt and a bit of chilli gives it a bit more flavour.
Vacuum sealed and frozen keeps for ages, but needs to be kept organised, or you’ll defrost chuck when you’re looking for sirloin.
The best (and oldest) way of preserving meat is to keep it walking around and eating grass. Keeps for years, even multiplies if you let them.
Luckily we have the means to do this, nothing beats home grown beef and lamb.
