The best containers for raw meat are glass dishes or stainless steel trays because they are non-porous, highly sanitary, and resist absorbing bacteria or odors. For freezing, heavy-duty, BPA-free plastic freezer bags are ideal as they allow you to squeeze out excess air to prevent freezer burn.
Store raw meat, poultry and seafood on the bottom shelf of the refrigerator so juices don't drip onto other foods and cause cross-contamination. When thawing meat in the refrigerator meat should be placed on a plate or in a container to prevent juices from contaminating other foods.
Raw Meat
Grooves and scratches in plastic containers can trap bacteria from raw meat, allowing them to grow. To reduce the risk of bacterial growth and contamination, store raw meat in a glass container.
Because we dry-age our meat, our shop fridges need to be specially designed to hardly ventilate any air around the space at all. This ensures minimum moisture, which in turn helps to draw any moisture inside the meat out.
While plastic containers are convenient, they can release harmful toxins like BPA and phthalates, especially when exposed to heat or cold. Glass containers, in contrast, are toxin-free, easier to clean, and safe for freezing and heating.
Stainless steel containers provide a robust alternative to glass and are also ideal for freezing without using any plastic. They're unbreakable and durable. Stainless steel boxes are a great solution, especially for meat or larger chunks of food.
Avoid processed meats
Finally, health experts say to stay away from processed meats, which are generally considered to be unhealthy. These include any meat that has been smoked, salted, cured, dried, or canned. Compared to fresh meat, processed meats are high in sodium and can have double the amount of nitrates.

Scientists have described more than 2,500 Salmonella serotypes, but less than 100 cause most cases of salmonellosis in people. Both FDA and CDC consider all serotypes capable of infecting people. Freezing and drying, which typically prevent the growth of bacteria, do not kill Salmonella.
Wrap meat tightly in plastic wrap or place it in airtight containers to minimize exposure to air, which can lead to spoilage and freezer burn. Tight Wrapping: Use plastic wrap or airtight containers to prevent air exposure and maintain meat quality.
Lentil is called “poor man's meat” due to its low price compared to meat, and can complement cereal-rich foods in providing a nourishing meal by balancing the amino acid and micronutrient requirements of the diet (Table 11.1).
