its still in its original package, with a date of june 10, 2007... i dont know whether that is still good or should i just throw it out? im cleaning out the freezer which is why i am asking, and that is the oldest in there, so if its still good, im going to use it either tonight or tomorrow!
also, dont know where i find out a star rating for my freezer, but it is new, i just bought a new refridgerator / freezer about a month and a half ago
Answers:
If it's been properly wrapped, I've had uncooked ground beef in my freezer easily for 6 months. If already cooked, my freezer holds it for up to a year (if I forget I have it in there). I've never had a problem because I make sure all my meats are well wrapped before putting them in the freezer. That helps eliminate freezer burn.
