If you're just talking transporting boned out meat home, as I stated earlier, any decent cooler that will hold up to 40# of meat with regular ice is all you'll need for two days if kept covered and out of the sun. Dry ice isn't necessary and can partially freeze the meat, or even freezer burn it, which is why I don't use or like it unless it's fully processed, packaged meat that is already frozen. Then dry ice is your ticket to getting the frozen packaged meat home.
