GRILLIN'!!!!
10:35 AMWe cleaned the grill for Memorial Day (I know, it's supposed to happen in spring, but we're lazy). We went to the massive warehouse shopping environment (CostCo) and bought a TON of meat to put into the freezer. For the past five days, I've been fire-roasting the holy shit out of all sorts of meat products.
It's been a happy, happy time... Which makes the sad news even sadder.
I woke up yesterday morning to find a gigantic puddle underneath my fridge/freezer. It turns out, the compressor coil for the freezer gave up the ghost, causing the ice to melt, which caused a "hotbox" sort of thing to happen with the humidity and the tepid temperature. Long story short, I lost a bunch of fine, tasty meat products in the crash.
And there is no backup for meat. No Time Machine, no rsync, no MozyForMeat.com...
I'm a sad Peacock.

that'd be good, then your meat would be fine even if your house was in a fire. Actually...if your house was on fire that'd be even better, it'd be a meat buffet.
Sounds like a bummer. Hey... remember me?
oooh, I've got an idea that's going to make me BILLIOOS!!!1
If you freezer fails and it's going to get warm...why not get Medium high? cook that shit, and then the worst that happens is a few boxes get burnt and you have a whole lot of glorious steaks and hamburgs you'd "have" to eat...oh boohoo. It sure would make this whole getting a freezer serviced or replaced easier.
NOOOOOOOOoooooooooo!!!
Why does good meat have to "die" in such a senseless manner? Steaks and burger and chops (oh my!) should spend their next to final moments over a lovely flame and then be lovingly sent into our mouths.
It's a pity that your freezerful of meat was never able to realize its full potential.
*bows head in memory of the lost meats*
How old was this freezer anyway? Was it still under warranty? If so, some companies cover the loss of product if the freezer unit fails while under warranty.
