no no no.
chest freezers simply freeze better. that's enough bu they use less energy.
and you can, i dunno, use crates for organizing and allowing items at the bottom to be retrieved. and you should be rotating stock every time you add items to stock
How into this are you getting? Have you seen those resetraunt fast freezers? They go to -40 in like a few minutes. Then you just gotta keep it in the frozen temp zone. If vaccum sealed properly food lasts a super long time.
yeah, we had an upright when i was a kid and that thing would lose too much just from opening it and rifling around looking for things. got a chest freezer when i moved into a house with some other guys in my 20s and the wire rack crates worked great. could pull them out to get the big stuff on the bottom like full ribs or whole chickens.
Technology Connections did a good video on them if you really want to get into it
also chest freezers offer better space in general. you can fit more big things in them
but i would get bear and venison right from a kill share. most people are getting beef steaks and pork chops. i cook whole chickens. i have 2 right now but i need to clean the refrigerator to defrost. just made a rack of dry rubbed ribs in the gas broiler with yukon gold potatoes and sauteed asparagus with onions and mushrooms
I have a chest freezer now and when I move I was going to swap to standing. For puff pastry and breads and, blanching and freezing fries and other tubers and the like... but now I think I'm just going to do both. Hahaha.
