Frozen Meat Safety

I have frozen meat that is past the expiration date. Is it safe to eat? Yes - if the meat was safe to eat prior to freezing and has been safely stored at 0°F, it is safe to eat. How long can I store meat in the freezer? Freezing at 0°F keeps food safe indefinitely. Therefore, recommendations for storage are only for the quality of the food, not safety.
