Safely store your delicious homemade beef burgers to maintain their peak freshness and flavor. Proper refrigeration and freezing techniques are key to enjoying these savory patties without compromising on taste or safety.

Storage Time

Cooked burgers: 3-4 days in the refrigerator. Uncooked patties: 1-2 days in the refrigerator. Frozen: 2-3 months for best quality.

Temperature

Keep refrigerated at or below 4°C (40°F). Ensure your freezer is set to -18°C (0°F) or colder.

Freezing

To freeze uncooked homemade beef burger patties, wrap each patty individually in plastic wrap or parchment paper, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or airtight container. This prevents freezer burn and maintains quality. Thaw frozen patties overnight in the refrigerator before cooking. For best results, cook frozen patties directly from frozen, adjusting cooking time as needed.

Signs of Spoilage

A sour or ammonia-like smell emanating from the raw or cooked beef.
A slimy or sticky texture on the surface of the burger patty.
A significant change in color, such as a dull gray or greenish hue on raw patties, or mold growth on cooked ones.
