Title: Storing Beef for 1-2 weeks
Post by: RawBeef on August 18, 2018, 10:35:51 pm
Hi, I'm buying whole chuck roll Irish grass-fed beef in bulk from now on because it's cheaper, but this means i'll have to store it for at least 1 week.
I share the fridge with other people but i am very allergic/intolerant to other foods so i'd need to be able to keep the meat 'sealed', but then again i know you should let the meat air.
so what storage method should i use? I was thinking of perhaps using a wooden plate with a glass dome lid on top?

I had cuts of beef just lying in my fridge seperately i would turn them around every day or so and it was ok for nearly 2 weeks i ate it slept great every damn night i ate raw meat

I think the best though would be to hang them

Hanging would be ideal, it's not possible, the fridge is stuffed with their foods and drinks, i only have one tray available where the chuck roll will fit on.
would it be a problem to put a glass lid on a wooden plate like a cheese platter? that way i am sure none of their toxic foods (gluten etc) can get on my meat.
i assume it will be just fine seeing as i will air it a bit everyday to cut a big slab off of it (i eat once a day)?
or perhaps wrapping in parchment paper is a better idea?

Also would it be fine to cut the into steaks already but then store them in the fridge lined up against each other?

if you think this will be a long term way of eating, you might invest in a small fridge just for yourself, and then hang large pieces which is ideal.

Yeah i will definitely do that once i move out in some weeks, there's just no space here for a extra fridge atm.
