How to Vacuum Package Meat for a Freezer
- 1). Place the raw or cooked meat into the vacuum seal bag. Allow at least 3 inches between the meat and the edges of the bag.
- 2). Slide the open edge of the bag into the narrow slot on the front of the vacuum sealer until the vacuum pump starts. The bag should shape itself tightly around the meat. The vacuum sealer will switch to heat sealing the bag shut once the air is removed.
- 3). Watch the heat seal indicator. When it indicates that the bag is sealed, remove the vacuum-sealed meat.
- 4). Place the sealed meat in the freezer immediately.
