It might do where you are, but not here in OzHere, max time from abattoir to your dinner burger is 3-6 months, depending on what freezing regime they use. We have done a couple of storage trials for Maccas where I work (not-so-secret Govt. organisation) and your frozen burgers are normally no more than 4 months of age, as after that, the fat oxidises and starts to go rancid, even at -80 degees Celsius.
