kfeusse Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) I put a piece of frozen roast beef (covered in BBQ sauce) in my crockpot an hour ago and I thought I put the crockpot on high...but in reality it was on "warm"...that isn't a big deal, right? I put it on high right now...and it will cook all day...intended for supper tonight. thanks. Edited February 4, 2020 by kfeusse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReader Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I'd be fine with that, yes. Should be no big deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mellifera33 Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I wouldn't think twice about eating it. And I tend to be a bit paranoid about food safety. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

almondbutterandjelly Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 Here's what I would do... I would think, "oh it should be fine," and then I would crockpot it all day, and then I would say, "you know what? I'm not comfortable with this," and I would throw it out. I know because I've done that before. So while I think it's still okay at the moment, if I really was planning on eating it tonight and not throwing it out, I would pop that baby in the oven and roast it done. Then refrigerate it until dinner and nuke it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marbel Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 (edited) I usually am in the "it'll be fine" camp, but I have always read/been advised not to cook frozen meat in a crockpot because the inside of the meat can't get out of the temperature "danger zone" quickly enough. I suppose it may depend on the size of the piece of meat? ETA: OK, I had to check it; there is conflicting advice out there (shocker!) but here is supposedly the "official" word from Crock Pot (tm) themselves (though I found this on a blog): Add at least 1 cup of warm liquid to the stoneware before placing meat in the stoneware.Do not preheat the slow cooker.Cook recipes containing frozen meats for an additional 4 to 6 hours on Low, or an additional 2 hours on High.

Melissa in Australia Posted February 4, 2020 Share Posted February 4, 2020 I defrost meat by having it sitting in a container on the bench every single day of the year. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have read this too and it would be the only reason I'd be hesitant to eat it - it's already been sitting out an hour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
