Its fine
- I done it with chicken meat cooked (and chilled) for 5-6 days. If it starts to get a bit slimey on the meat then its out of the door 
It's hard to find the balance when you are love.
You're lost in the middle cause you have to decide between mind & heart.
Heart is the engine of your body but brain is the engine of life.

Its fine..id use it.
My favourite use for cooked chicken is to put it in home made Paella...yummy...and a nice bottle of Rioja.
Incidentally,i recommend Sainsburys Paella rice. Its in a little sack like a bag of sugar with a mainly black wrapper.
Some other brands take an age to soften and absorb the juices.
Conveniently,there is a recipe on the side which you can scale up as it suits.
I tend to make a big batch and tupperware the rest for other meals.
Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0 -
Another one here who'd eat it perfectly happily. We were still eating left-over christmas turkey three days after christmas as cold meat straight out of the fridge. Cooking it way beyond that.
Wasn't there some kind of old saying about making a joint last all week - "Cooked on Sunday, Cold on Monday, minced on Tuesday etc" - and that was from the days before fridges! 0 -
But I'll be haunted by the double waste of cash for days.....

and we will never, ever return.0 -

Pull the meat off and make pasties; use the bones and skin, etc, to make stock then soup :T:rudolf: Sheep, pigs, hens and bees on our Teesdale smallholding :rudolf:0

Penpen - do you have a foolproof recipe for the pastry to make pasties? Sometimes lurking, sometimes posting, but always flying
