YOUR QUESTIONS ANSWERED

How Long Are Crockpot Freezer Meals Good For? When food is kept at or below 32°F (0°C), bacteria cannot grow. So, food stored that cold will not spoil and will be safe to eat indefinitely. However, after a time (usually 4 to 6 months) the quality of your food may start to diminish and it might affect the taste and texture of the meal. For freshest taste try and use up your freezer meals within 4-6 months.

Do You Have to Thaw Freezer Crockpot Meals? If your recipe has raw meat or poultry in it then YES you should thaw the freezer meal first before adding to a slow cooker. This is to keep your food from growing bacteria as it slowly heats up according to the USDA Food Safety & Inspection. But if you don’t have raw meat you can add frozen food to your crockpot.

What is the Best Way to Prepare & Freeze a Crockpot Freezer Meal? The most budget friendly option is to use a quality freezer-safe plastic bag. Label the bag first, add in your ingredients then seal the freezer meal bag, pressing down to remove as much air as possible to avoid freezer burn. If you have a freezer meal without raw meat in it and plan to add it to your slow cooker frozen, these 2-cup Souper Cubes on Amazon work very nicely!
