When you cook meat

When you cook meat

IS the best before extended? Like cooking kills the bacteria so can the meat keep for a extra couple of days if its cooked on the BBD?

smell it..... if it smells ok cook it

If its been frozen until its about to be cooked it's a bit like 'freezing' it in time, to a degree.

Not the case if it's fridged though!

dont think so

how long have you had it in the fridge??
has it been frozen??
does it smell ok??

for example u buy some chicken breasts the best before is 10/01 u cook it on the 10/01 (killing the germs) so would it be ok to fridge it after that for a day or two and eat it

yes... i've just done that with some chicken

i would always smell it before you eat it...if it smells ok then taste a small piece & if it seems ok then eat it

what sort of meat is it?

yeah it was frozen on day of purchase and tastes and smells fine but this question is in general and not just for froaen food. I think the Best before is extended after cooking as the germs are dead and need time to return.

its the flesh of a virgin i killed the other night

best before is a legal date they have to put on. Meat usually lasts days after but if in doubt i wouldnt like...

As long as you reheat it to 68 deg C it will be fine

you're not allowed to reheat chicken. im sure!

your right, i only eat cooked chicken cold if eaten later

yeah thats fine pike, normally cooked meat is ok to eat for about three days after cooking

you can, the law is your only allowed to reheat food once and that is it.

you sure? loads of things state NEVER REHEAT

you shouldn't reheat chicken at all, tis not good cos of the bacteria that are in chicken either that or nuke it so that they all die

you should also not reheat takeaway rice cos that's also not good for you
