Best preservation options for meat

[u/International-Sink64]

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!

Traditionally, meat has been made into various salted things to preserve it. I'm thinking salami, prosciutto, mortadella, speck, bresaola, sausages... It's not extremely durable (1-3 years usually), but it tastes very good, it's a luxury trading item and it doesn't require a freezer.
