Freezer trick I picked up at a cookout in Portland last summer

So I was at this backyard BBQ in Portland and saw a guy grab a bunch of burger patties that were all stuck together. He just slid a piece of wax paper between each one before freezing them again. Honestly, I never thought to do that and it saves so much time when I'm meal prepping on Sundays. Has anyone else tried something like this with their frozen meat?

Paint a thick layer of peanut butter on the wax paper before freezing. That way the patties don't stick but they also get flavored on the outside when you sear them. Saw a chef do it on a camping trip and it absolutely changed my burger game. Keeps the patties from drying out too. Just make sure you use real peanut butter, not that sugary processed junk.

Kinda funny how the best cooking tricks always turn out to be the simplest stuff you already have lying around.
