I always vacuum seal. It’s really nice on fish too. Don’t have to freeze them in water and wait for a gallon of ice to melt.
Yeah c’mon. Daniel White

I use a vacmaster chamber sealer. They are more expensive initially but bags are much cheaper than the cheap sealers. The chamber sealers can even seal water. The bags I use are around 45.00 per thousand and are thicker than the cheap sealers plus they are rated to boil food in.

Steven Rinella recommends first wrapping in a layer of Saran Wrap to squeeze out air and help keep air from reaching the surface of the meat. Then wrap in butcher paper and it supposedly last for a year or longer with no problem. probably longer than that....I think I've read/heard him say at least a couple of years. After finding a few packs of meat that were vacuum-sealed by the processor, only to end up leaking and getting freezer burnt, I'm considering just using the saran wrap/freezer paper for any I do myself.

The bags I use are around 45.00 per thousand and are thicker than the cheap sealers plus they are rated to boil food in. I’m looking into getting one of these units. What has been your overall experience with it? Some of the reviews suggest there is a bit of a learning curve with some of these machines.

I'm extremely impressed with it. Wish I had bought one years ago instead of wasting money on 2 foodsavers. It was easy enough to learn plus the bags are much better and cheaper.
