Can you freeze cooked meat?

Question

Can you freeze cooked meat and still have the same flavor it had when i first cooked it?

Answer 1

yes, but your not supose to to freeze meat until it cools down.

Answer 2

You can safely freeze cooked meat, but I wouldn't recommend cooking a steak and freezing it.  I won't taste very good thawed and reheated.  the best way to freeze meat is in a casserole/stew.

Answer 3

Yes but think again there's something in your kitchen management if you need to freeze cooked food. Freezer is generally used to store raw food except  for ice cream.

Electricity consumption also is much higher if there's many items in your freezer instead of a refridgerator.

As for taste wise, lets take a BBQ piece of meat. You tenderly grilled them and later put it back to the freezer. To achieve the earlier smoky  flavour you need to fired up your grill again. Waste of fuel or maybe for convience u going to use a microwave

Answer 4

yes

Answer 5

Yes, you can freeze it and it will still taste exactly the same- no matter how long you freeze it for. In fact, if it is curry it can actually taste nicer after being frozen!

Answer 6

Of course you can, I live alone and find most joints of meat are much too big for one sitting.  I cook one and take off as much as I need and freeze the rest.  Sometimes the frozen piece can stay in the freezer for a month but still tastes as good as when it was first frozen.  Just remember to de-frost it completely before heating it.  Better to zapperoony it in a microwave as this takes much less time, overcooking becomes a problem if you just stick it in the oven and watch soaps waiting 'till it is ready.

Answer 7

i think it would lose its flavour and wouldnt be too nice to eat ay lol

Answer 8

yeap. remember to defrost adequately before heating it up though, and do not refreeze after defrosting.
