    if turning the meat into biltong anyway i guess leaving it in a brine would help?

    will defiantly be taking the vac packer as i have found that sure helps prolong meat life
    Be aware that your average household freezer is not equipped to be bouncing around on the back of a 4x4 while full of meat. The are lightly constructed, the compressors are not particularly well mounted, and you need to let it rest for an hour or so before switching it on to let the refrigerant settle (or so I've been told).
