What to do with left over villa food?

So I have frozen $15 ribeye, a 5 pack of Guinness, some frozen chicken breast and two frozen sirloin hamburgers. I hate to throw this stuff away. Any ideas? Anyone here on the island and want some food?

i usually either give it to friends on the island or leave it for the cleaners......

Leaving it in the villa is perfectly acceptable, and it won't go to waste. The cleaning staff will make good use of most things left behind.

We leave any unopened items for the cleaning crew. Place a note on the refrigerator door letting them know what is inside. Put all the dry goods on the countertop in one spot. The gesture will be well appreciated.

We usually leave for the cleaning crew. A few years ago ( with Chad and Todd as owners of Woody's) we got to know some of the wait staff and kitchen crew and we would pack up a couple of boxes of our left over stuff - some of it not even open, and would drop it off in the morning. The one year we had a bag of pistachios in the shell - about 3/4 full and Dan, the cook made a B-Line for those! It was always appreciated and I know the cleaning staff will like the leftovers.

I leave things for the villa cleaners, but I've never left meat (except in one case where I was dealing directly with the on-island owner and I was able to talk to him and confirm that he wanted it) because I'm always afraid that they won't trust it and will toss it.

So any leftover meat I cook and take to the bushcat feeding station that is behind the dumpsters near The Westin.
