I've never had a problem with it. We ALWAYS smoke several when we fire up the Traegger and freeze quite a bit of it. Always very good.

Thanks,I thought it would be okay but hearing it from others who've tried it helps a lot.

If I'm precooking a butt for later use, I don't shred it until after I've rewarmed it up. I'd be afraid of losing alot of moisture.

When I've made pulled pork in the past for events that require it to be done ahead of time I've done this.

All I do is retain the drippings and juice from the roaster, freeze it and then put the pulled pork and frozen juice back into the roaster. I stir to get moisture to all of it and it's always been fine.

I'd vacuum seal it, if you can. They are like 100 bucks and you'll find that you'll use it all the time.

Another benefit: After its defrosted, if you reheat it in the vacuum sealed bag, it will retain all the juices. You can go sous-vide style to warm it up (but don't do it so long that you start cooking it again).

I think I might need to invest in a vacuum sealer as well. Anybody have a particular system that they really like?
