1 Submerge the bag with the meat in cold water and change the water every 30 minutes. 2  The frozen meat will decrease the temperature of the water, slowing the thawing process if the water is not changed. 3  Defrost small amounts of meat in approximately 1 hour.4  Larger pieces of meat can take up to 2 to 3 hours. Plan ahead for defrosting meat in the refrigerator since it will take time. 2  Place wrapped or covered meat on a dish to catch any raw juice runoff. 3  Defrost the meat for a full 24 hours. 4  Large cuts of meat, such as whole birds or roasts, can take 24 hours for every 5 lbs.
