How long can ground beef stay in the fridge?
I just broke up and browned two preformed ground beef patties I bought last week from the grocery store. The "sell by" date was the 15th, today is the 21st. My fridge is cold and the meat was still dark red. I cooked it thoroughly, it went in spaghetti sauce . Its been a couple of hours since I ate it and everything is ok so far...lol. I did drink a 3 oz shot of vodka immediately afterward, I figured if there were any stray bacteria stragglers, the alcohol would pollute thier environs enough to protect me. I think people are way too careful.
