I've done this for meatloaf, taco meat, and just ready to use ground
beef. I keep a couple of bags of ready to use already cooked gr. beef
in the freezer as well as ready to use taco meat for those times when I
want something quick and don't feel much like cooking. The majority of
this was frozen raw then cooked and froze again. HTH
