Once it's down to temperature you can just run it while the sun is out (so the battery is not needed), to keep it cold enough that your meat doesn't spoil
There are designs online to Run freezer off an inverter and battery. Normally the freezer will draw more than can be provided by solar and inverter.
The design used a electrical thermo switch that turns on the inverter when the temp goes up, and a huge tub filled with frozen water to act as a thermal battery. So it stays frozen longer then when the temp goes up, the inverter kicks on cools it down again. Then Turns off

Good point. Now to convince myself to spend $$$ on a solar panel kit or just buy some MREs
Sometimes you can find a bargain online somewhere. Look into surplus & etc
