Yes, I mean a 1/2 beef tenderloin.

Why can’t you just cut one in half?

Because I don’t want to buy a whole one. My family won’t eat frozen meat.

This is easily the most asinine thing I've read on DCUM in awhile.

Especially since most meat is frozen before it gets to us. Yes, even grocery store "fresh " meat.

Though I do think the most asinine thing I've read on here is the recent post on how to cook frozen Pease. Maybe this the same poster?

Wow, ok. Well... you don't have to tell them it was previously frozen.

They can tell. Maybe it’s my freezer. It just tastes off.

Are you just freezing it in a big open container? Are you freezing it after it's been cooked?

I worked in food service since I was a teen and freezing meet is incredibly common.

Say I bought a package of ground beef that I didn’t end up using. I’d just throw the package in the freezer. Maybe it needs to be wrapped differently.

I put all meat in ziplocs and push out the air before freezing. Store plastic wrap won't prevent freezer burn.

PP who worked in food service here. YES. That's what freezer bags are for. Like if you have ground beef you're going to mix with strong spices or sauce, such probably won't taste it. Otherwise, bag that stuff up properly.

I want to just clarify to some PPs who don’t understand that OP didn’t mean a filet mignon, like how to cut steak in half.

OP actually meant a whole beef tenderloin which can’t be cut in half and freeze half because OP’s family inexplicably doesn’t eat meat that has been frozen.

Please appreciate how crazy this is even by dcum standards!

How freaking cheap can you possibly be to not want to spend MAYBE $8 to 10 additional dollars?

You ask for the smallest filet and you ask the butcher to slice it in half horizontally.

maybe you can vacuum seal the meat first, then freeze it.
