frequently asked questions

Tried at home and I have some left in the original packaging. Will this keep for a while or do I need to use it soon after opening? Thanks!
 
The 'best by' date on your package applies to an unopened package of FD Beef, but if the previously opened bag is stored properly, you can still achieve the quoted shelf-life. It's important to push all air out of the bag and securely seal the bag — oxygen will negatively effect the freshness of the beef. Double-bagging or placing the bag in an air tight container is even better. Secondly, store your bag in a dark, dry place at 70 degrees or below. For more tips, please see our blog post "How To Store Freeze-Dried and Dehydrated Foods" (https://packitgourmet.com/blog/index.php/2019/02/18/storage-shelf-life-of-dried-foods/)
For the freeze dried chicken, pork, and beef — if I open it and put the product in to a ziploc bag, what is the expected shelf life?
 

We do not recommend storing your remaining FD Beef in a Ziploc bag. Ziploc bags are clear and very thin, allowing oxygen, light and humidity to negatively effect your chicken. We recommend using a Mylar Bag (this is what our FD Beef will come packaged in & we sell them on the site individually) which acts as a very efficient barrier to all of these.

Can it be stored in the freezer to extend the shelf life?
 
Due to the high humidity levels that can be found in freezers, we do not recommend storing your FD Beef in the freezer. A dark, cool and dry pantry works great!
What is the shelf life of the freeze dried meat?
 
This depends on the date that the product was packaged, but we guarantee a minimum of 1 year of shelf life at the time of purchase.
