You been day drinking again Aussie? This thread is 2 years old!
I think what he was saying is after 2yrs, if it is still sitting out, then it is good. That much time it has to be safe :becky:

Wasn't Bill's fault, a spammer brought the thread back to life. Their post was before his. Now history.
I left an awesome pot of chili out on the stove to cool before putting it in the fridge. You guessed it, left it out all night and had to toss it.
Are you day drinking now? Maybe you should think about trying it!?
And this is the kind of response I expect. No I'm not drinking. The misunderstanding that so many of you have about food safety is so that you naturally think I am either drinking or nuts or both... but I can tell you, the rest of the world pays very little attention to the FDA and people don't get sick from eating perfectly good food that the FDA would tell you to throw out.
I'm trying to get some understanding of this across but it's a hell of a battle as very few of you are looking at things objectively or scientifically. Where's GORE when I need him!
So.....drinking heavily then?? :icon_blush:
There fixed that for you.:thumb::becky:And this is the kind of response I expect. I am drinking heavily.

In all seriousness you are probably correct. The FDA simply is idiot proofing against food borne illness.
If you follow their guidelines you won't get sick. Guaranteed.
If you look at the science of it yeah you will be fine. It takes one dumb person misunderstanding science and bam they are sick and blaming the FDA. So yeah they make idiot proof regulations as there are idiots that would get sick because of a misunderstanding.
I've done the same with frozen turkey before.
Uhhh, no.
It would have been fine. A brisket is a very large piece of meat. You went from Frozen to thawed ... room temperature only at 60F in a gentle time. Even several hours at that temp is not long enough to allow sufficient surface colonisation of bacteria. It's sad. I see so much meat wasted here because people don't understand this process.
Again, I state.. it's just not possible for something to grow enough bacteria and toxins in a few hours that's going to kill you, or at least give you the trots or a belly ache.
Now of course leaving ribs or chicken in a car for the weekend... yeah
But a brisky on the counter? Throwing that out is a waste... and fellas, please don't redirect me to various FDA articles. They are designed to tell you to throw out everything regardless. Gotta keep you safe you see... Can't leave anything up to interpretation or speculation, just in case someone is liberal about it and sues the government when their kids get sick because some chicken nuggets got left on the counter for 20 minutes too long.
