In the fridge of course. I used some seasoning salt and pepper on them earlier, then covered them with saran wrap on a plate. I just dont feel like messing with them tonight, I dont feel good:(

They'll be just fine. Maybe even better.







Alright, they probably won't be better, but they will be fine.

They will be good; Actually letting the seasoning sit overnight will improve the flavoring of it.

Enjoy.

Just put them in a container or one of those locking freezer bags. They'll probably be better after being seasoned overnight.

I tend to worry about things of this nature because of the kids. I dont want them eating anything that could remotely be spoiled;)

Hopefully your hands were clean when you handled them.

I am a fanatic about handling food and hand washing;)

So you're spoiling your kids by not spoiling them? Brilliant!

Ground beef overnight in a fridge? No worries.

I was eating some that was almost a week past the sell-by date (note that sell-by date != use-by date)..then it started looking a little weird a day or two later..so I tossed the rest. I'd like to think I'm still alright.. :p

If they turn gray, toss 'em. ;)

More so that I removed it from its vacuum packed little white tray, and then wrapped it back up in saran wrap on a plate. I always prepare/cook meats right away when the store seal is broken, thats why I asked:)

I used to wrap for a butcher -- we didn't vacuum pack anything..just wrapped it up. Let us know how they come out tomorrow :)

No, no, no. If it turns gray that just means you don't have to brown it before eating.

:D

Remember, the more gently you form the beef into patties, the better they taste.

Also, don't press down on the patttties when you're cooking them.

I work for a butcher now, and they'll be A-Okay for a few days, if wrapped properly. Even after they turn a little brown, they're still fine.

I always throw mine in the freezer, even if just overnight.
When you do cook them, they won't shrink as much.
