Actually,, if you cook the defrosted meat, can you then refreeze it again?

Only a woman would know the answer.

Yes. And it's actually quite an efficient way to do batch cooking. Cook everything, divide it into (man sized) portions, and then re-freeze. I use those plastic curry trays/pots you get from the takeaway. Then when you want to eat something, defrost overnight in a fridge, and heat the next day in a microwave. 10 minutes in the microwave will use a lot less leccy than cooking a meal properly each day. Boil up some rice/pasta/spuds on the hob and jobs a goodun.

One thing often not mentioned in batch cooking reports is to make sure you label the portions as you put them in the freezer. If you don't then meals just become freezer lucky dip - you're never quite sure if tomorrows tea is going to be Liver and Onions in gravy, or Chicken Phal, or Spag Bog.

So a quick postscript.

It turned out that my freezer decided it didn't want to be frost free any more and is now a frosty model. It had frosted up and jammed the fan and once I defrosted it normal service has been resumed.  :y

Luckily I never got round to taking my old noisy but functional F/F to the tip and has been lurking at the back of the garage for some time, so I fired it up and froze everything again.  I'll sling some of the grub out, but most will be OK.  :y

I just need to remember to defrost it from time to time.  ::)
