Does freezing beef affect its quality?

0

We flash freeze the meat which locks up the water molecules so quickly that they don’t have time to grow large crystals inside the cells. It’s these sharp, expanding crystals that tear the cell walls and cause loss of juiciness and flavor. But not with our beef. First the meat is aged to develop all its flavor and tenderness, then it’s preserved by flash freezing. So there is no loss of quality. Once your beef is in your own freezer, it will keep perfectly well for months at 0° F. Your freezer may not be set this low, so check it. Even at 10° to 15° the meat will be fine from a bacteriological perspective, but it does decline in quality over time.
