We had a huge one on the farm, and used it for the beef and pork...
This one isn't that big - one of my customers goes to "distressed shipment" auctions, and picked up a small truckload of 5.5 cubic foot freezers. They went fast, and I got one.
And it is a good size for my small house, which has a small fridge...
And since I'm not going to be going out to the barn lot and marking the victim, I'm wondering what to put in it. I already did an ice cream test, and I have it set right.
I doubt I'll get much hunting in - Here in the urban homestead, I'm thinking that I am going to need to watch for stuff that is a loss-leader? That I'll actually eat? I eat a lot of ham and sausage and burger, and I know that bacon freezes okay too. Any suggestions? I figure I can't freeze eggs all that well, but they're cheap at Aldi anyway.
What do you guys do?
