    Will be fine to eat - if not a little rubbery.

    be careful with it, it may not have been heated up properly the second time, which could cause any bacteria to start working. If u do decide to eat it, make sure it is very hot before you do. 80C for 2 mins at least.

    It'll be fine, as long as it's piping hot all the way through.

    I have a delicate stomach so I wouldn't risk it myself. However, if my family wanted it I would reheat it for them because they never seem to have any problems! Just make sure it is absolutely scalding hot to kill off any bacteria!
  • Thank you for all your replies - I had a good think and decided not to risk it because, as gilmer33 said, I don't know how long it was reheated the first time....... and as we are recovering from a virus, it's probably best to be safe, rather than sorry!
  • Hi
    I was wonder if you could help.
    I have HM bolognaise originally cooked in my slow cooker and then froze portions.
    Tomorrow my parents are coming and will be arriving late so will no doubt be starving. Can I put the bolognaise in my slow cooker again to cook so its ready for them? - it'd probably dry out in the oven and I have to pick them up.
    Thanks in advance

    I would but you could also just warm it through in a saucepan.

    That's waht I was going to say - the sauce will heat up in less time than it takes to cook the pasta ;)

    I'll add this to the QQ on reheating thread to keep ideas together :D

    Okay I'm going to try to explain this but might not do a good job! LOL!

    I have lots of meat in the freezer and I would like to spin them out to 2 or 3 meals per joint. Can I de-frost them, cook all the meat for 1 meal and then with the remaining meat make stews, pies etc... and then re-freeze them? I don't really understand the rules regarding this. Cheers

    BTW my main meats are beef, lamb and pork
