Why Meal Prep on Carnivore?
Meal prep is a game-changer for carnivore success. When you have cooked meat ready to go, you'll never be tempted by convenient carb-laden options. Plus, buying and cooking in bulk saves 30-50% compared to cooking single meals.
Spend 2-3 hours on Sunday cooking for the entire week. Make bulk ground beef patties, slow-cook a pork shoulder, batch cook bacon, and prep breakfast sausage. Store in containers and you're set for 5-7 days of effortless eating.
Meal Prep Storage Tips
Cooked meat stores for 5-7 days in the refrigerator and 2-3 months in the freezer. Always cool completely before storing, and reheat gently to prevent drying out. Add a splash of water or broth when reheating.

Weekly Meal Prep Strategy
- Sunday Prep Session: Dedicate 2-3 hours to cook all proteins for the week. This is your carnivore meal prep foundation.
- Cook in bulk: Make 12 ground beef patties, slow-cook a 5lb pork shoulder, batch cook 2lbs of bacon, and prep breakfast sausage patties.
- Portion into containers: Divide cooked meat into daily portions. Glass containers are best for reheating. Label with dates.
- Freeze half: If cooking for one person, freeze half your prep. This gives you 2 weeks of variety without repetition.
Best Meats for Meal Prep
Ground beef is the meal prep MVP. Form into patties, cook, and reheat throughout the week. Pork shoulder in the slow cooker requires zero effort and feeds you for days. Bacon cooked in the oven is fast and makes every meal better.
Avoid meal prepping eggs - they're better cooked fresh (only takes 5 minutes). Steaks also don't reheat well. Focus on ground meat, slow-cooked roasts, and bacon for best results.
