I buy in bulk and have to freeze to keep it. I don't notice a difference in taste, but to be fair I grew up on a farm, we butchered once a year and froze all the meat, so I could be used to it.
Hubby says he can tell a difference if its thawed in the microwave or in the fridge, I can't though the microwave ones seem to cook faster.

In order to help keep us in our budget, we stock up on good sales. That said, we definitely freeze and save for later date.
