Can you freeze corned beef?

Lola23

Hi there

Just wondering if it's ok to freeze corned beef..loose kind like you buy from deli?

If so will it be ok to freeze in slices, or would it be ok to make sandwiches first then freeze them.

Hoping to go for day trips next week and want to get cold meat in now to save waiting till last minute.

Thanks

Lola

No reason why you cant.

I have frozen corned beef before. I've also frozen sliced ham but that was just to use in omelettes/pasta etc

I had corned dog butties today that I got out of the freezer this morning (made up last weekend). No problems at all, do it every month!

Hi Lola,

Providing it hasn't been previously frozen you can freeze it either on it's own or in sandwiches. It normally takes about four hours for the sandwiches to defrost so if you lift them out in the morning they should be ready for lunch.
