  1. even if the beef is Shrink wrap packaged 1 year is the Maximum for Quality on that meat. i know here in So. MN when covid started the meat processors were backed up 6 months. There really are NOT that many OLD style processing Plants anymore. that take in a Farm Animal and go all the way from Live to ready to the table. don
