I know you're not supposed to freeze your meats, and I don't freeze my meats, I usually smoke them if I want to preserve them, or just buy the meat a few days before hand and do the marinading then.
My question is though, what exactly does it do, and how could it ruin my cooking?

water in cells freeze, bursts cell walls and a bit of moistures leaks out when you thaw it. So the texture of your meat is different, sometimes a little big grainy.
Mince meat or meat that is stewed for a long time usually has cell walls severely damaged when cooked so it doesn't really have any effect on it imo.

Animal cells don't have cell walls retard.
I buy whole beef filets and cut them into steaks to freeze all the time. Works great if you suck out the air before freezing.

Why don't you google it, you fucking retard?

anon's just being autistic about cell walls (plants) vs cell membranes (animals)

I do something similar where I'll buy a whole ribeye and cut it into 10 or 12 sreaks, cryovac and freeze. Never noticed deterioration in texture or flavor.
