Best Ways To Store And Use Beef

Best Storage

The fridge is the best place to store beef.

All raw meat should be stored at the bottom of the fridge in a clean, sealed container to stop it from touching or dripping onto other things. Always keep cooked meats in the fridge, well wrapped and away from raw meat.

Ensure your fridge is set between 0 and 4°C.

Can I Freeze It?

Yes.

Cooked and raw beef can be frozen in a sealed bag or container. You can also freeze previously frozen meat if it’s been cooked.

Fresher For Longer

If you only need a portion of the package of meat, reseal well or store in an airtight container. Store in the fridge or freeze for later use.

Use It Up

Cut any leftover steak into strips and use them in a stir-fry. Or slice them thin and add to salads, sandwiches or burritos for lunch the next day. You can also grind up leftover cooked steak in a food processor and mix it into stews and chili.
