Accident. Need advice.

submitted by Rowdybme to whatever 1.4 yearsJan 20, 2024 19:57:41 ago (+5/-0)     (whatever)

I took some frozen lamb shanks and left them on the counter for about 36 hours. They're room temperature now. They were vaccuum sealed. I opened them and they smell normal. Toss em or cook em? My wife says toss em.

I'd cook them and eat them. A lot of the "food going bad" stuff is overhyped. Also, if you get food poisoning, I'm not a licensed cook or whatever. For what it's worth, I would cook them super rare and eat it. People have been eating meat for millions of years and for 99.9percent of that time refrigeration didn't exist.

I ate it. Waiting to see if I die.

Worked out fine. Actually it was more like 48 hours it was sitting out too. All this food safety bullshit is overblown.

Yeah many of those food standards are because of spics, chinks and poos that leave shit out for days and get people sick so they make them extremely limited for public consumption.

My cousin worked for a restaurant and got brainwashed and would throw food away that was out for 2 hours because that was the standard at his restaurant. Fucking dumbass, I almost beat his ass for trying to throw away my prime rib.

ChatGPT:

I am not an expert in food safety, but leaving frozen meat at room temperature for an extended period can lead to bacterial growth, which may pose a risk of foodborne illness. It's generally recommended to thaw meat in the refrigerator or using a cold water method to ensure it stays at a safe temperature.

While the fact that they were vacuum-sealed and still smell normal is a positive sign, I would advise you to exercise caution. If in doubt, it might be safer to discard the lamb shanks to avoid any potential health risks. If you have any concerns or want more specific advice, it's always a good idea to consult with a food safety expert or a local health department.

LLama2:

It is not advisable to leave perishable food like frozen lamb shanks at room temperature for an extended period of time as it increases the risk of bacterial growth. However, since they have already spent this amount of time out of the freezer and are now at room temperature, there is still a chance that they can be safely consumed if properly handled.

To determine whether these lamb shanks are safe to eat or should be discarded, follow these steps:

Inspect the packaging for any signs of damage or leakage before removing the shanks from their original vacuum-sealed state. If there are any visible indicators of contamination or spoilage, discard immediately.
Check the "use by" or "best before" date printed on the package. If the expiration date has passed, it's best to err on the side of caution and dispose of the product.
Thoroughly wash your hands and surfaces that may have come into contact with the meat.
Remove the lamb shanks from their packaging and inspect them closely for any discoloration, slimy texture, or unusual odor. If all appears well, proceed to the next step.
Cook the lamb shanks thoroughly until they reach an internal temperature of at least 71°C (160°F) using a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat. This will ensure that any potential harmful bacteria have been destroyed during the cooking process.
If after completing these steps, you still feel uneasy about consuming the lamb shanks, it might be better to toss them out just to play it safe.

Cook em. Smell is everything. Without oxygen they are fine. All you did was sous vide them at room temp.

Vacuum sealing does not remove the potentially present harmful bacteria in food; therefore, vacuum-sealed foods can only stay at room temperature for a maximum of 2 hours.

cook them

[ - ] Master_Foo -1 points 1.4 yearsJan 21, 2024 00:44:04 ago (+0/-1)

36 hours is probably pushing it.
To be counter safe, food needs to have a PH of 4 or less.
A lamb shank is going to start to rot before too long.
You have MAYBE a day tops.

Go vegan and you won't have these problems. Meat is a dead being!
