For soup I ladle it into a zip lock bag and carefully eliminate the air. For raw meets I first wrap them in Saran wrap, then place them in a zip lock bag and eliminate all the air I can. For stews I do the same as for soup. Anything solid, first wrap in Saran wrap and then place in zip lock bag.

The above eliminates nearly all freezer burn.
