BrAdvice Episode 13: Stop Digging. Start Managing. Freezer Tips for Hunters

If you’ve ever stood over a chest freezer digging for that one moose roast buried somewhere at the bottom, this episode is for you.

In this BrAdvice episode, Brad Fenson breaks down practical freezer management for wild game hunters. From proper wrapping techniques to colour-coding by species, labelling by year and cut, and building a freezer legend, Brad shares the system he uses to manage deer, elk, moose, bear, birds, and more.

You’ll learn:
• How to wrap wild game for long-term quality
• Why butcher paper and colored burger bags matter
• How to use cloth grocery bags to organize by species and cut
• Why layering meat properly prevents spoilage
• How to track older meat so nothing goes to waste
• When to repurpose cuts into jerky, sausage, or pressure-canned meals

Brad reminds us that hunting is about more than harvesting. It’s about respecting the meat, using it well, and planning ahead.

If you care about wild game storage, freezer organization, and getting the most out of your harvest, this episode will change the way you use your freezer.
