Burger patties - storage

[SMOKEOCD]

Curious what others do to store burger patties. I came up with what’s in the picture but would love to see if anyone is doing something else.
Off topic/On topic- these are patties, but not hamburgers. They are pljeskavice, Pattie version of cevapcici (cevaps). Still the same storage issue.

SOCD, I don't see a picture but any premade patties at my house are double wrapped in freezer paper , they last for months in the freezer .

Sorry about that, pic attached now. Each patty has a top and bottom 4.5” patty sheet for easy separation, then frozen in small stacks, then into the gusseted poly bag 8 patties per bag ( basically a bread bag).
This round I did 30lbs ( half beef, half pork) so roughly 90 patties.

My operation looks like this .
After grinding , I weigh out , form and onto a tray .

I pre season mine , and stack up in 3's with plastic wrap in between .

Then I cut through the wrap , leaving stacks of 3 .
I wrap each stack in plastic wrap and into a bag to freeze .
Stores flat in the freezer .

Same here. Freeze, or partially freeze, and vacuum pack.

Anything I go through within a month , I've been wrapping in plastic wrap and putting in a freezer bag .
I do enough processing that I need to save the vac bags for the whole muscle stuff I buy on sale .
Just bought anouther 100 ' roll .

Vacuum seal them. Its the only way to freeze and save meats.

Easier to separate when pre-frozen in my experience

Just the 2 of us these days AND because stuff happens ...
Anything I want to save gets par frozen and vac packed. We're leaving for Florida in 3 weeks so anything left in the freezer I want to eat it, not toss it, next spring.


Vac bags are cheap, meat is not.
