Lo & behold ~ the marinated London Broil I was sure was there somewhere. This (spare) 'side-by-side' refrigerator/freezer is SO much more difficult to organize than my full upright freezer was. But, it does have a working ice maker so I have that as a spare. I guess I'll stop complaining and just try to do better at keeping stuff straight.
BETH #1 .... the LB looks great.
On the freezer issue, we have problems with the side by side in the kitchen.
All the crap is squeezed in and stuck so that the drawers wont slide out to get the stuff.
The downstairs unit is a Gibson Commercial huge freezer that is 7 feet high, and with three people stucking and moving stuff ( me ...tina ....and DD ), it's impossible to keep it organized.
I try and keep the pork chicken, and beef separate.
Jimmy, I had the same problem with my freezer, and there was the occasional frozen something that would slide out and land on my foot. OUCH! I solved the problem by buying plastic bins. I put all the chicken in one bin etc.. It helped a lot.
I was just down there separating and vacuum sealing sausage and ground beef.
I had no room because GD's 3 kinds of frozen waffles, and fruity pops in huge boxes were all over the place.
Now the freezer is due for a defrost. And the turkey buzzards WILL have a feast when I get through cleaning it out.
