So yesterday I went to the grocery store to pick up some veggies for my caccitori and to pick up some meat for dinners this week. When I got home, I immediately went to town chopping the veggies since the chicken had been in the crockpot for a bit already.
Turns out I totally forgot about putting the meat away until I went looking in the bag for the tomato. So basically, my raw chicken and my pork had been without refrigeration for about 4 hours. It was still quite cold, but I’m assuming I need to throw it away, right? This is right up there with the don’t thaw the meat on the counter, right? (which, I should mention…I do fairly regularly).
So toss it?
Toss. 4 hours is a long time.

Thanks Sarah, that’s kind of what I figured. I headed out to TJ’s and picked up some new meat for dinner instead. Made some pork chops with a balsamic reduction…go me!
