Other than buying a box of 1000 meat patty papers, is there a simple thing that works? Wife says aluminimum foil but Im doubtful.

Two layers of wax paper, so the patties easily come apart even while frozen.

Wax paper, parchment, plastic wrap have all worked for me. Foil tends to freeze to wet items like a tongue to a flagpole.

We put the non-frozen patties on cookie sheets then freeze them. When hard, we just take them off the sheets and put them in large Ziplocs. Open the bag, pull out however many you need. If bagged when frozen they do not stick together.

Wax paper or if you have a supply tear off some freezer paper into the correct size chunks.

What Moosetrot said. We do the same with strawberries and homemade meat balls.

We do that with all of our venison. We freeze it and then vacuum seal it. No blood or juice to mess things up.

Same here Moose. I make 50-70 pounds of apple-venison sausage patties at a time. I you try to vacuum-seal before freezing they really distort. I vacuum-seal six to a bag and they tend to mush into one big patty if I try to vacuum before freezing.

So I set the patties on cookie sheets with two layers of waxed paper between layers of patties and go about 6-8 layers high depending on when the bottom layer starts to distort. Then thety go in the freezer for twenty-four hours and get vacuum-sealed after that.

Sometimes I'll wait until a really cold day/night (teens/low-twenties) and just set the patties out on the deck to freeze. Wife doesn't like that, she's always afraid some varmint comes along and has a feast with all out hard work.

My freezers are usually not very full at venison processing time, the last year's venison having been mostly consumed by then.
