We bought a bunch of untrimmed beef tri-tip roasts for my MIL's 80th b-day and I had 8-10 lbs of trimmed off beef fat when done.

I hate to throw it away because come October and November, I'll be needing some beef fat for mixing with deer and elk for making summer sausage, pepper sticks, etc. I usually just buy fresh beef fat to add when I grind up wild game for making the sausage type stuff.

It's been vacuumed-packed and wrapped in freezer paper. How long will it last in the freezer?
