Hey Everyone! Thank you for all of the wonderful feedback on my Youtube Dehydrating videos! I’ve made another one for you this week on how I dehydrate ground beef in order to save money and space in my freezer! Dehydrated ground beef is shelf stable and rehydrates like a charm (I can’t tell the difference!).

Be sure and watch until the end to see what my ground beef looks like once it is rehydrated! Links to products I use in the video are below.

Dehydrating is a wonderful way to preserve ground beef while leaving your freezer space free!

**To vacuum seal my mason jars, I use a Foodsaver (Click here for the one I have) with a Wide Mouth Mason Jar attachment. I’ll do a video on both of those soon.

  1. So far I have dried the frozen vegetables and the rice, at your suggestions, with great results. Now I need to try the beef too! thanks

  2. I bought one of the Excalibur 9 tray dehydrator, Love it! I am dehydrating pork and chicken today. Is it best to put the meats into jars or sealed bags? The beef jerky I did is already gone….LOL Thank you and see you tomorrow.

  3. Thanks for the dehydrating videos. I am researching putting meals together in a vaccum bag for better storage. Soups, stews, stroganoff, anything I can find. Do you have recipes for these? There is a wealth of info out there, but we really trust you because we feel we know you.

      1. if I don’t have a vacuum sealer for my mason jars the dehydrated hamburger can go into the freezer in a small ziplock bag correct?

  4. I have a question, how do you evacuate the air from the Mason jars? do you process them the way one would do for regular canning? I have a food vacuum unit but have no purchased any jars to go with it. I am loving this idea, would rather have food in jars than in the freezer!!!
