meat bad?

[Mr. Laz]

so is there any secret way to tell when cooked meat has gone bad?


1. no mold
2. doesn't smell funky
3. doesn't taste funky


don't remember when it was cooked though ... hasn't been like a month or anything but i don't remember when.


just eat it and if i die, i die ...... i suppose.


wish me luck

This reminds me of an old George Carlin bit...

Perhaps the worst thing that can happen is to reach into the refrigerator and come out with something that you cannot identify at all. You literally do not know what it is. Could be meat, could be cake. Usually, at a time like that, I'll bluff. "Honey, is this good?" "Well, what is it?" "I don't know. I've never seen anything like it. It looks like...meatcake!" "Well, smell it." (snort, sniff) "It has absolutely no smell whatsoever!" "It's good! Put it back! Somebody is saving it. It'll turn up in something." Thats what frightens me. That someone will consider it a challenge and use it just because it's in there.

Waste not, want not.

Is it hamburger meat? Chicken meat? Bat meat? What is it?

i'll let ya know about

when in doubt, throw it out.


If you didn`t eat it the day you cooked it, it`s probably bad already. Especially if you can`t remember when you cooked it.

I know exactly when I cook my foods so I rarely throw any out. As a matter of fact, I have a Sirloin Steak I grilled the other night. I will eat that as a snack later.

I doubt it... otherwise, they wouldn't pillage dumpsters.

If it's like a cold cut, that shit will start getting super greasy. Nothing more disgusting than a foul cold cut.

Nuke it and eat it.

I recently cooked and ate some chicken that had been in the fridge too long but didn't stink yet. I was sick as hell for a couple of days over it, and I normally have an iron stomach.

If you're young and bulletproof, go for it. If you aren't, I would err on the side of caution and throw that shit out.

I recently saw a dog trotting down the road, dragging a piece of a leg from a road-kill deer. It looked like it had been out alongside the road for awhile. I don't think I would go by what your dog thinks of the mystery meat.

Nuke the shit out of it, let it cool, refreeze. Seal in a vacuum bag, boil in a vat of a 6 cup water, 2 tablespoon iodized salt mixture. Cut open the vacuum bag, put in the oven to broil for 1 hour. Take out of oven, and cook on barbecue over low heat for 1 hour, and then you should be good.

Over the summer I forgot about some broccoli and left it in the fridge too long. No doubt about it when that shit went bad. I triple-bagged it and threw it in the trash can, but that was the day after garbage pickup and that shit made my garage smell like rotted ass through all the bags AND the lid being on. Took about another week for the smell to fully dissipate after it was picked up, too. Goddamn that was gross.

Heh, your trash day must be Friday like mine, I'd like to be able to throw shit away when the Mrs goes grocery shopping on Saturday, but then the shit will sit and stew in the garbage for a week, so I have to leave it all in the fridge until Thursday, and then I usually forget or I'm busy and don't have time and the shit sits in there for another week.

I once kept a banana around until it turned hard as a piece of wood. It went from green, to green and yellow, to yellow, to yellow and brown spotted, to brown, to brown and black, to black, to solid like a rock. It was like the end of that movie "The Time Machine" where the time machine guy goes into the future and watches that corpse turn into dust. Spooky.
