I only vacuum seal to make the packages flat to stack them in my freezer. Which is all set up with plastic bins to separate by meat type. I can get much more meat in them by flattening them and putting them in bins.

Big ol batch of meatballs for new years will put a dent the supply.
Weazle, curious why you say that :dunno: Been wrapping meats this style for 35+ years, never had an issue if wrapped tight and correctly. Burger gets just lined paper, sausage gets saran then same paper, pepp sticks and jerky get vac seal.........HOPING santa is good to me this year and comes thru with a nicer vac sealer.

After 6-8 months I've had bad luck with butcher paper and freezer burn. I know, it's tried and true, but I just don't get good results. I also like to make my vacuum packages flat in order to stack them better!
