Use By Dates and Freezing Guidelines

Raw poultry

Raw poultry lasts just a day or two in the fridge (at a temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit or colder), but up to a year in the freezer (at a temperature of 0 degrees Fahrenheit or colder). Our chicken wings have been previously frozen and are not suitable for freezing.

Red meat and pork

Red meat and pork can remain in the refrigerator for up to four days and can be frozen for four to 12 months. Leftover cooked meat will last three to four days in the refrigerator and two to six months in the freezer. Our pork baby back ribs have been previously frozen and are not suitable for freezing.

Ground meats

Ground meats such as beef, veal, pork, or poultry can be refrigerated for one to two days and frozen for three to four months.

Bacon and sausage

Our bacon packs are labelled with a “use by” date (usually up to three weeks if refrigerated) and our sausages should be used within three to four days. Both can be frozen for a month.
