WOW! I want to publicly thank whomever it was who suggested asking for freezer burned meat on freecycle (I never would have thought of it!). I scored ~53 pounds of meat today! Not sure it is ALL edible by the dogs (well, I am sure they would eat it, but not sure they SHOULD!)...so here is a list of what I got and please let me know if any of it is not OK to feed:

~4# chicken breast - no bones
~4.5# pork spare ribs
~9.5# pork tenderloin
~12# pork/pork chops
~9# pork roast
~2.2# ground beef
4# bacon
4# steak-um burgers ("ground chuck")
12 oz ham steak
~2.2# sausage
1# kielbasa

I am guessing the bacon, sausage and kielbasa are "no gos" because they are too spicy or fatty...

I would love to hear everyone's thoughts, and also re-suggest to everyone to try posting for freezer burned meat on their local freeycycle group!

THANK YOU!

I wouldn't feed sausage. Bacon is probably ok. I don't know what kielbasa is. :smile:

Don't worry a lot about fat. It's not bad for dogs like it is for humans.

I did score, huh? And two more women wrote and said they will be cleaning out their freezers in the next couple weeks and will let me know when I can pick up. The NICE NICE NICE lady who gave me all the meat yesterday sent me an e-mail last night in response to my thank you e-mail asking if she could keep my e-mail address to contact me in the future. I was like, "Um...OK!" LOVE FREECYCLE!
