Couldn't cook it last night, was dragged out by coworkers.
Is it still good? I get nervous leaving meat more than 24 hours when the seal is broken.

Well if I googled this I'd get 1,000 websites written for plebs that all say if you do not eat the opened pack of meat the next evening you will LITERALLY DIE OF SALMONELLA ARE YOU MAD.
Just wanted some common sense reassurance.

give it the ol' smell test. if it smells fine, it's fine. it's it smells off, throw it out.

"If it smells off..."
fuck.

If you are going to fully cook it "no pink", then it will be fine.

Just make a chili or some bolognese sauce and make sure to cook it thoroughly if you're afraid.

You know the grocery store just wraps that shit themselves right? It's not some hermetically sealed anti-bacterial package.

kekked for some reason
Use your senses. Does it look good? Does it smell foul? Does if feel slimy? I understand meat these days sometimes keeps its color longer than it should due to some treatment they get but the smell should be evident.

If it was refrigerated, it's OK. If it got to room temp and stayed there for hours, toss it.
