Yes. As long as the meat has been thawed and handled in a safe manner prior to cooking, then you can freeze the cooked meat. A lot of people cook meals ahead of time for convenience.

Once the raw meat has been cooked, cool quickly, and then freeze. If the cooked meat has been previously frozen, then don't refreeze.
