Meat packaging

Post by ssorllih » Sat Sep 29, 2012 14:59

Yesterday when I was putting meat mix up as patties I measured it out in a 1/3 cup measure and when I had a couple of dozen lumps I wrapped them with Press-n-Seal®. The proceedure is so simple and effective that it is worth telling. The stuff is a foot wide on a roll. Tear off about 8 inches and place the lump of meat in the middle of one half and fold the other half over and press the edges together. Then flatten the lump into a patty and press out the air and push the film together. It sticks and you get a modified vacuum pack at a small fraction of the cost.
Edit to add. I packed the stuffed peppers in the same manner.
