we've used a vacuum packer for two years now and I won't be without it...it's a bit of work up front but worth the time!
We're down to a few cuts left from last year but there's nothing wrong with it. We just had some stew tonight made from 2003 moose cutlets. I also have a bunch of hamburger from that road kill this spring.
