I suspect that most REPUTABLE butchers and so on don't have to deal
ROTTING meat, but they might know.

Ask at a local abattoir or meat processing plant. Check your local
Yellow Pages. Meat processing plants are not just in Chicago and Texas.

Ask a local butcher, but try not to insult him.
"How do you get rid of the smell of your rotten meat?" - Bad.
"The brisket looks good today. I'll take 2 pounds. By the way, do
know how OTHER butchers clean up the smell of rotting meat from
their freezers and other plastic, glass or metal surfaces?" - Better

Ask a local museum or taxidermist that deals with fresh kill or road kill
how they deal with rotten meat odor when preparing specimens. They
might use enzymes for thoroughly cleaning some bones, depending on
how rotten the meat is. Fouled plastics fridge parts might be different
from cleaning bones, but they might have some ideas. Some use
carnivorous insects to clean bones but I don't think that would apply in
your case.

Ask a local bio dept or anthropology / archaeology dept (even a high
school science dept) how they clean up specimens.

Call customer service at 1-800-themanufacturer of your fridge and
see what they say.

How about these hints (wet newspapers; activated charcoal):

Let us know what, if anything, works.
