Food Safety: How long can frozen vacuum-sealed steak wait in the refrigerator after thawing, before cooking? I'm not sure about the difference between community butcher packaging and cryovac. I've done this with steaks frozen for ~2mo at -18C and then left in the fridge at 5C for 12 days before cooking -- smelled fine, and tasted fine.
The frozen steak had a much thinner band of overcooked meat (known as a âgray bandâ) surrounding the pink interior than the thawed beef, too. YouTube The frozen steaks also browned nearly as fast as the thawed steaks in the skillet, though they did take 18 to 20 minutes of cooking time in the oven (compared with 10 to 15 for the thawed steaks). Of course to get these results, the steaks need to be frozen properly. Simply storing them in a bag can cause ice or moisture to form on the steak, which can in turn cause flare-ups when youâre searing the steak in oil. Instead, Souza said the best way to freeze the steaks was to set them on a baking sheet lined with parchment.
