venison meat

[Hd Wtr Hillbilly]

Just a quick question for some of you guys...

I usually slice my roasts up to make jerky, anyway while freezing the roasts from this years hunt I found 1 roast in the freezer and a small bag of scrap that I usually grind up into burger....they accidently got burried and forgot about...is it still ok to make these into jerky/burger or should I have anyreason to worry about using them? Or do I dump them?

I am not one to waste meat so spare me the harassment, I process a lot of meat each year for a few of my family members that bring me deer and this is the first time I have forgotten some of it

I just want an opinion if processing this and re-freezing it to be eaten in the next few months is going to be ok.

Absolutely. Use it up! Its not going to hurt you. It might be a little freezer burned, but no biggee.

If you see some freezer burn, hust slice it off and use the good meat.

Just discard anything that you do not think you would want to eat and add the rest to this years pile.

We do it all the time, it is just fine. Like others have said, cut off anything that is freezer burnt and make as usual.
