To Freeze or Not To Freeze

[Mike in Roseville]

Picked up some single slabs of fresh spares this morning (in cryo's). Pack date was 3 days ago...it says "sell by" is June 10th.

Plan on cooking them one week from today (June 7th).

Leave the cryos in the fridge? Or freeze them for about 5 days and take them out Friday night/Saturday morning to thaw in the fridge?

I’d let them ride in the fridge until next weekend. Pretty recent package date, I would not freeze if using next weekend.

Either way will work.....

I would leave them in the refrigerator. Chances are they were already frozen. Freezing them again might affect the meat and it's probably not necessary for that short a time.

I vote refrigerate. Less hassle of thawing it out and it's still within the sell by date.

they will be fine in the fridge for a few days no problem.
