Assuming I eat exactly my TDEE everyday, on day I have a big meal and consume an extra 200 calories over my TDEE. How long do I have to create a calorie defecit of 200 calories before they’re stored as fat by my body?

Pretty quickly.
It takes around 30-40 minutes for your first bites to go from mouth to bloodstream, the bigger the meal the longer this input will take. There’s a very short period in which your body will pump this active energy around before it gets stored.
If you want to work out and build muscle mass and burn body fat, what you want to do is flood your body with protein and a bit of carbs before you start, then go HAM for a while.
