Frozen food find question
When moving, I found 2 pounds ground venison. It's not vacu-sealed. It's in a wild game package. It's about 2 years old. Is it usable? Was planning on some chili. Or should I just throw it?

Is it in a plastic bag? If so and has been in the deep freeze, you're probably ok!

It's been in the back of the side by side freezer. I'll open later to check for freezer burn.

Looks good to me. Give it the old whiff test when it thaws, maybe pinch of a small piece and fry it in a small pan and taste it. It should be safe, just a question of whether it tastes good enough to contribute to your chili.

Ty,
COOK IT .... That package looks real good to me. You should brown the meat anyway before mixing the chili stuff with it and if it smells like the inside of a freezer... CHIT.. then you can dump it. My guess is that it is fine. Mark

Hey, tumped, I think your find not only failed the whiff test but probably fails the visual presentation test as well. Maybe some romaine leaves or parsley?

I would use it. I have had things in my freezer for that long myself. I don't think it could kill ya, just taste bad possibly. But using it for chili, perhaps it will lend to your secret recipe.

It will be safe to eat but it most likely will taste bad. I would trow it out or make it in to jerky sticks.
