Wax paper would be my first choice to try. For me, we instead portion
it out in ziplock baggies in the amounts used for 3-4 days, freeze, and
defrost in the fridge so it is separatable easily.

Thats one of my simple adaptions to back issues that make me bulk shop
every 6 weeks or so vice more often. I'll get 4-5 lbs of good deli
sliced meats and portion them then freeze. Things I do not think I
will use within 2 months get vacuum sealed.
