Default How to freeze sturgeon????? Help

Long story short I have a bunch of sturgeon meat that needs attention, what is the best way to keep it for storage?

I have a vacum sealer would that be my best bet? Or freeze in water?

Need some quick help on this one.

Thanks

1. Never eat fresh sturgeon, treat it like a deer or elk and let it sit for a few days

2. Soak in whole milk for 24-48 hrs

3. Cut into cooking size pieces (before or after the milk bath)

4. Vaccume seal. Will last for 8-12 months, but in my freezer this is the go to meat, so not an issue.

5. Cook fast and hot, do not overcook.

PM if you want some great recipies

I always just vac pack and freeze. Works fine. One tip is you may want to chill the meat prior to vac pack. Helps seal the bag better.
