@prairie.creek.hom: A few months ago we had a freezer die, and we lost ALL our bacon along with other cuts of meat. It was an expensive loss. I began researching alternative storage methods other than canning or freezing (my husband does not love canned meat). The solution to my problem was a freeze dryer from @harvest_right ! I plan on freeze drying fruits, meats, vegetables, eggs and pasta this fall for shelf stable foods that can last for decades 👏🏼 If you are looking an alternative to freezers, check these out!
