2 Ways To Properly Vacuum Seal And Freeze Your Extra Steak

[@BiggMo]

Pre-freeze on a rack, THEN vacuum seal…this preserves the shape of the meat and prevents the vacuum from sucking moisture from the meat.

[@judybarnett7071]

Before putting anything in the vacuum seal bag, roll the open end outwards like a sleeve. That way the inner surfaces stay clean and make a better seal.

[@ButcherWizard]

Great tip

[@269joedaddy]

I do this and sometimes it damages the bags. So on food that will freeze longer I’ll use a sleeve to make sure the food doesn’t touch the inside of the bag on the sealing surface. And I always use caution and make sure I have no holes

[@rhuffstedtler]

That’s a boss move, right there.

[@patricebrown6051]

That’s exactly what I do

[@Dakiniwoman]

Yes that is a great idea, I do that also.

[@barcham]

I have the same vacuum sealer as you are using, and I love it. One thing I do differently, is that I will put whatever cut of meat I am vacuum sealing in the freezer on a sheet pan for about 30-45 minutes before bagging and sealing it. This will freeze it enough to keep all the juices in the meat, as well as preventing the juices from possibly causing a weak seal on the bag. As you are only freezing it for a short period of time, you will get no frost buildup on the meat at all. But you will get an excellent vacuum seal on the steak, and none of the juices will be vacuumed out of the steak when sealing it up. And I can vouch that a steak will keep for at least two years, as that is currently the longest length of time that I had one in the freezer. When I thawed and cooked it, my NY strip was as tasty and tender as the day I bought it.

[@brad_neal]

One thing I do is to wrap the meat tightly in plastic wrap prior to sealing. This prevents the juices from being sucked out and into the sealer.

[@barcham]

@@brad_neal I do the same thing with most of the meat and chicken parts that I vacuum seal, but I wrap them, and freeze them before vacuum sealing. Apart from keeping the juices in the meat, this also allows me to reuse the vacuum bag as I remove the meat from the bag before defrosting. All the used bag requires is a quick rinse in some soapy dish water to remove any possible bacteria that may remain and they are ready to be used again. Just make the bag a little longer than required. This is also an excellent way to seal multiple pieces in one long vacuum bag. As they are individually wrapped, you can open a bag, remove one, then reseal and place back in the freezer.

[@nanoahumada6393]

You are right. The first time I vacuum seal a ribeye, it turned dark the next day, but after I found out that I needed to freeze it for 45min, it was perfect.

[@karincope3019]

We are a hunting family with 3 freezers , I found a roast that was 7 years old, vacuum sealed and no freezer burn or any damage .

[@barcham]

@@karincope3019 And that is why I tell everyone I know that the best kitchen appliance they could ever purchase is a vacuum sealer. 👍👍

[@jerryferren9018]

I do as barcham does...freeze it first, but I add a little twist. I wrap anything that I seal with my FoodSaver in Saran wrap (keeps the bag clean for reuse). Then, I put the meat in the vacuum bag and freeze. After it's frozen, I use the FoodSaver to seal the bag.

[@suew4609]

Wow, that seems like a lot more work!

[@waltfriedrich7631]

Been doing this for many years, am actually on my second vacuum sealer. I found that it is better to cut the meat then place on a cookie sheet and freeze overnight before vacuum packing. Then when ready to use slit the bag before defrosting. By doing this you eliminate the loss of juices caused by the vacuum.

[@mrhalfstep]

I routinely eat Foodsaver packed steaks that are 3 years old. They aren't freezer burned because no water crystals form and they don't get rotten because they were frozen and in contact with very little oxygen. I've never gotten sick, even though I eat my steak rare to medium rare. I have taken to using bags made by Out Of Air company because they claim to have more layers of film in them. They seem thicker and I really have gotten good results. Before I got my vacuum sealer I used zip lock bags, as you demonstrated. I find that the varieties that have the physical zipper slide are not good for long term meat freezing. I also found that using as deep of a water level as possible, the whole depth of my sink rather than a half filled bowl, for example, squeezed the air out better and made the bag "stick" tighter to the meat. The weight of the water is what pushes against the air pressure of the atmosphere to drive the air, inside the bag, to the outside of the bag. That weight-generated pressure gets greater as the water depth gets greater, so a steak at the bottom of a tall bag, in an equally tall water column of water, will be squeezed tighter, for lack of a better term, and that will drive more air out. Just be careful to keep the bag extended to the bottom of the sink and the opening of the bag just above the water level.

[@mhlovelady]

I had a Food Saver for years and sometimes I got a great seal, other times not so good. I recently bought a chamber vacuum sealer and it does a much better job and will even seal liquids, such as soup. I also agree with the comments about freezing, or at least partially freezing before doing the vacuum seal, and also about rolling the edge down first. Really enjoy your videos, and just purchased the 10 inch breaking knife and the 6 inch boning knife.

[@Dakiniwoman]

The best small appliance I ever bought is a Food Saver Vacuum sealer and it cost less than $100.00 I have used it hundreds of times now over the past 3 years. I bought a 6.3 cubic foot upright freezer with 5 shelves in it. Each shelf will hold two side by side vinyl shoe boxes that I can pull out like little drawers. I pack my steaks just like that in vac-seal packs and they fit easily in the shoe boxes like a filing drawer. I also pack my ground beef in flat packs and they also fit many in each shoe box. I can put a lot of meat in my small freezer that I keep inside a closet. I am a carnivore, so I eat two steaks every day. I wash thoroughly and rinse and dry the sealer bags many times over so I can save the cost of buying so many sealer bags. My steaks are hardly ever in the freezer more than a couple of weeks, but I know I would feel fine if they were there for a few years. The only problem is when I have T-bone steaks as the bones will sometimes puncture the vac-seal bags.

[@brucejohnson1264]

I invested in a chamber vacuum sealer. It uses standard bags that are less expensive, and can also vacuum seal liquids. Works great for sealing marinated steaks.

[@ButcherWizard]

Where did you get it from? I would be interested in trying one of those out.

[@waynefenton8768]

[@tobarstep]

Publix had ribeyes on sale for like $6/lb a few months back so I bought a bunch. I didn't feel like breaking out my vacuum sealer so I used the immersion displacement method. I tightly wrapped them individually in saran wrap first, though. About to defrost the last one for tomorrow.

[@ButcherWizard]

That sounds like a great deal.

[@boblehmann1644]

I think the plastic wrap is going to trap air. Better than nothing, but you will still have the same problem.

[@davidburdick594]

I just ate my last ribeye from that deal as well. I usually by 3 or 4 standing rib roast when they put it on sale each Christmas. The butcher will cut them into rib eyes for you as you wait.

[@virgiltoepfer7087]

Just bought one for Christmas. 40 years prior, I always used a plastic flexible straw. Similar process as your water system. At 74 years of age I really appreciate the Christmas gift! 😅

[@wyominghome4857]

Thanks. The vacuum sealer sounds like a winner, but I appreciate the low-tech version as well as I live in a house with limited kitchen storage space

[@Dakiniwoman]

You don't need a huge vac sealer ... Mine is very tiny and works perfectly.

[@Z.e.k.k.e.n]

If I use Sous Vide can I season my steaks before vacuum sealing? Will that affect the steaks negatively if I freeze them? I want to season them before cooking, but I also don’t want to dry out or taint my steaks while they’re freezing. I find myself using twice as many food saver bags. One for freezing. One for cooking Sous Vide. What is the optimal way?

[@hardtruth2039]

Good video. I upgraded to an avid armor chamber vacuum machine this year. Wow what a difference, much better than a suction machine and the bags are much much cheaper as well.

[@herkboy3]

The water truck to seal the bag is great. Never thought of that! Thanks for the info

[@ButcherWizard]

No problem. Thanks for watching.

[@jacobschmitt1028]

New to your channel but have enjoyed the couple of video’s I’ve watched. I get really confused on the cuts of meat, and feel funny for even saying that. You have such an informative channel and I appreciate you, as my dad never taught me stuff like this. Being a parent now, I want to give my kids what I never got, and steak was one of them because of price. Thanks for giving my family a cheap option by learning to cut meat!

[@ButcherWizard]

Thanks for watching. I will try to do some more explanation on the different cuts.

[@HawaiiBeach]

If I vacuum seal, can I take out thaw and put directly in sous vide in same bag? thx

[@larryc7777]

Great video. I've had really good luck using butcher's paper, Ziploc bags & a long rigid plastic straw. First, I wrap the meat tightly in butcher paper. Then, I put the package in a Ziploc freezer bag making sure that it is fully seated with a slight space next to the side of the bag. Finally, I zip the bag almost all the way across leaving room to insert the plastic straw into the space. While using the fingers to hold the zipper against the straw, I use my mouth to suction the air from the bag. While holding suction on the straw, I withdraw the straw and finish zipping the bag as soon as the straw clears the zipper. This method isn't quite as good as a vacuum sealer but steaks seem to disappear rapidly at my house. NOTE: Since I use the same technique to get my steak ready to Sous Vide, be cautious about inhaling any seasonings or juices during the sealing process.

[@ButcherWizard]

Thanks for the tip

[@richardglickman7203]

You don’t need to use the straw. Basically the same process but pinch the zipper an inch, or 2, from the edge of the bag so the zipper doesn’t open further. Then pinch the edge of the bag towards your pinched fingers to create a circular opening and then suck the air out of the bag and pinch the zipper closed while still sucking. When I tried using a straw, either the bag wouldn’t seal around the straw or the straw would collapse from trying to seal the bag around the straw. One more thing. It needs to be a freezer bag. The thinner bags will not protect the contents in the freezer.

[@larryc7777]

@@richardglickman7203 A lot of times I will use the mouth to bag method when I am saving leftovers in the refrigerator. You need to purchase some RIGID plastic straws in order for that method to work. Be sure to leave a space next to the meat and insert the straw there. Also, squeeze the zipper and force the straw against the side of the bag. Suck the air out and continue suctioning as you pull the straw out (I clench my teeth to accomplish that).

[@Nosensev57]

Tip for anyone using the water seal method; the more water you use the higher the pressure if you keep it submerged deeper. high pressure = less air. If Mr Butcher Wizard wouldve filled the whole thing with water, there wouldve been less air in the package.

[@kadeaugsburger6764]

I use the Food Savor V4400, its $200 on sale for $160 and has lasted me years for my whole ribeye's

[@goneboating123]

Thanks for your info...like it.....I also like the last 3 comments....I too use a chamber sealer...and a foodsaver...roll the top back so not to contaminate the seal...I wish I had room in my freezer to pre-freeze...Great stuff. Publix has standing ribeyes right now before Christmas for 5.99 lb....time to cut and store.

[@ronaldyeater3322]

Hi, my food saver is to powerful lol, even on moist gentle it compresses meat, I bought the foam trays and food tampons, I put steaks/meats ect.. on sheet pan in freezer with wax paper for hour or two then put on trays with pads and put in bad and seal., My old foodsaver I could just vac seal? I tried 9oz burger patties and they were pancakes 🤣😂. What model is yours? I could use for duck, chicken,and looks like steaks without flash freeze. Tyvm

[@shopping810]

What do you mean by "you can leave it in the refrigerator for about 2 weeks after you get it from the store, and then you are good to go"? Why 2 weeks in the fridge after store purchase?

[@doplinger1]

@ButcherWizard - would you ever recommend seasoning your steaks before sealing and freezing? Even if it’s only salt?

[@helenwilliams7611]

Do the same tips apply to poultry and fish?? Would love to see videos on breaking down and storing other proteins!!! Also - is Costco your go-to store for buying proteins in bulk?

[@269joedaddy]

I vacuum seal chicken and fish. I also cook larger portions of my proteins and vacuum seal them to reheat like tv dinners. Never had an issue. It’s a game changer if you smoke meats…

[@FlowerGemsGirl]

I would love to see more videos about vacuum sealing other meats too! I add seasonings to a lot of my packages before I seal them. Like lemon slices on fish and marinades on poultry.

[@nurhanturky]

Does the vacuum sealer prevent freezer burn and persevere nutrients?

[@joshuaverdin2160]

Great video bud! What setting to set the sealer on for that kind of meat ?

[@rancancookcanoy9768]

Another trick I use is to take a straw, close the bag around the straw and then suck out the air and seal the bag. Have a great weekend. Thank you.

[@vtmegrad98]

if you use the kitchen sink instead of a bowl, it's a lot easier to get all of the bag underwater. I did that for years before finally buying a vacuum sealer

[@ButcherWizard]

Great tip

[@jixxjaxx6035]

Great videos! I just had one question. You explained not to double stack meat on top of each other but would sealing two steaks side by side not touching in a larger bag be okay?

[@christywerpy437]

I would try putting a sheet of wax paper or parchment paper the size of the steak between the steaks. Just my idea to save on vac bags.

[@rogerdoger9939]

My butcher (whole animal) places 2 in a pack when vacuum sealing them. I have never noticed browning on them.

[@Carnivorefitness2024]

I find when I let them thaw out in the fridge the vacuum draws alot of the blood out of the steak when it thaws, seems like thats not a good thing, whats your though on that? I think i will poke a hole so it loses vacuum in the fridge as it thaws next time.

[@danasharp855]

I try and season the meat before I seal it. That way it is seasoned nicely by the time it thaws and if I sous vide, I don’t have to open the bag. I brined two pork tenderloins the sealed and frozen one and roasted the other. I have another ready to go.

[@ButcherWizard]

I have never tried to season and then freeze. I am glad it works out for you.

[@TheFriendlyPsychopath]

I always and only do that with steak as well.

[@smokindauberdoo4208]

Don't salt

[@xxZerosumxx]

​@@smokindauberdoo4208 why not?

[@l82nite]

With the zip loc bags, I use a straw to suck out all the air. Can use the vac port on the vac sealer, but just as easy to suck on the straw.

[@henvdemon]

Water vacuum method works best in vessels with lots of water. Think a stock pot full of water. Adds more pressure to the oxygen displacement leading to a better seal. Creasing air out before dunking it helps too. Same with ensuring the seal is clean and dry.

[@johnstoveken5901]

I use the Saran Wrap, paper towel, then zip lock

[@MrTerryabel]

Question: if I will be sous vide cooking my steaks is it ok to season them (salt/pepper) before freezing?

[@TexasCanuck]

[@Carnivorefitness2024]

Aslo I hate freezing steaks, how long would these last after butchering, probably only a few days in the fridge huh? I would love to eat fresh steaks every day after buying one of these rolls.

[@Matweaver7]

Hey, so I tried this. I individually vacuum sealed them and then I put them in the fridge so I could make room in the freezer. I came back later the next morning to put them in the freezer and they had all turned brown. Is that normal? How do you prevent that? It wasn't because they were old. I had literally just butchered them (following your video) and from one afternoon to the next morning they turned brown. It was only the vacuum sealed ones too. I kept one out to eat that night and it was still perfectly red.

[@269joedaddy]

The red in meat is a reaction to oxygen in the air. I’ve had brown meat that smells good. I’ve even pulled a steak out and dried it in the fridge overnight and it turned red. But always use your nose and caution

[@Kytreeswerving]

Wouldn't it be better to freeze them on a baking sheet, covered in parchment paper, so the steaks hold their shape when you vacuum seal them? It looks like the vacuum seal exerts pressure on the soft, warm steaks, and changes the shape of them over time.

[@Kytreeswerving]

You could also freeze multiple in the same bag then without worry about them sticking together

[@ayosgsauce]

what about putting Siran Wrap around the steak?
