Abstract
There are different methods of preserving meats, such as freezing, curing, drying, smoking, and canning. Freezing is the most popular means by which families can store their food supply. It is a practical and desirable way to preserve meats and by far the easiest method. Freezing, however, is not the only way to preserve meats for family meals. Some of the other methods are still quite popular, for they produce an entirely different product such as corned beef, hickory smoked ham, and canned meat products that many families will enjoy for quick meals and variety. Freezing is best used to supplement other methods of meat preservation.
