This is great. I have been doing something similar to this for a while. It does so much to add flavor when you marinate meat and freeze it. It also helps cut down time spent preparing a meal when your meat is ready to be cooked up. There is a book called Fantastic Freezer Recipes that I teaches you how to do this as well as many other tips. You can buy it at freezerdinner.com
this is one of the best videos so far. loved it.
While I can appreciate the idea of freezing ground meat I'm also willing to say today or tomorrow. There's simply never, ever been a time when I've been able to defrost frozen meat in a refrigerator in less than 8-12 hours.
