Meat

[campking]

My wife just told me our fridge has quit working and I just checked it and yes it is, there is sheep meat from my sheep this year that still has some ice in each pack but will not last long.

If it is legal to give a way perhaps someone would like it, but basically would need to pick it up tonight in Port moody or unfortunately will go in the garbage.

Why don't you ask your friends or neighbours to keep it for you until you fix the fridge?
I don't think giving it away is the only solution.

The meat is fairly soft and I don't think it is safe to refreeze it?

Pick up a few blocks of ice and a large cooler and pack it inside,will last a couple days till you can pick up a new/used fridge

If it's safe to BBQ it, it's safe to re-freeze it.

refreezing is no problem,have done it often...

Sounds like the meat is still partially frozen....I would refreeze asap! As long as it didn't get warm.

This fall a buddy sent a cooler of fish from the coast. Shipping took 2 days rather than 1. Some was partially frozen, some completely thawed but still very cold....refrozen it without issue.

I live just a stone throw away in Coquitlam. I have a stand up freezer. You would be more than welcome to store your meat here till you find a replacement fridge or freeze.

Thank you all, I did not realize it could be refrozen and I have another stand up freezer so I just transferred it all of into it.

It was around two thirds thawed so I hope it will be ok!

Once again THANK YOU for all your help!!

[Whonnock Boy]

It will be perfectly fine. Just thank your lucky stars you didn't find out by noticing a strong odor in the house.

nothing wrong with refreezing it it just makes it tender safeway did this years ago
