Yes you can wrap meat in aluminum foil and freeze it that way.

It's safe to wrap meats in aluminum foil and freeze it that way without needing to place it in freezer safe containers or plastic wrap.

It is however better to wrap some plastic wrap around the meat that is in the aluminum foil to help keep air out and prevent freezer burn.

But you can just freeze the meat in some aluminum foil without any issues.

I wrap larger meats in some aluminum foil and then freeze it like that and it's never been an issue.

But for smaller cuts of meat I prefer to put them either in a plastic container or plastic bag to keep most of the air out.

You can also freeze the meats in the foil or the wrap that the meats come in as well.
