Freezing meatballs

I also thought shortly after posting that I could just freeze a batch worth of meatball meat prep in one lump and then ball it up after defrosting.

I’m impressed that you know the date for the making of your frozen items. Alas, I’m in the “mystery” mode, so far, as regards much of my freezer items, especially those in the garage freezer. Not just when, but even “what is that?”
