If it's been frozen previously and thawed but not cooked you can only refreeze it if it's been maintained at proper temperature in between (40F or below). It must be wrapped well and as much air as possible expelled so it won't develop freezer burn. If the meat has been cooked it can also be refrozen following the same guidelines.
