Food Cross Contamination

[Vince Rivera]

I sometimes put cooked bacon into my burger patties. Can I put these together into a bowl and save for tomorrow?

 

[Dave from Denver]

Vince, this is fine. Just make sure that the beef bacon mix doesn't get over 40F for too long (more than a couple hours) and it's perfectly safe.

As long as you keep it cool it should be fine like Dave mentioned.

The butcher shop that we use in Oakland here has a burger patty that it makes with bacon and short rib (they mix and grind both together), most people who try it are fairly enthusiastic about it. you might want to try freezing the bacon and then grinding it into the beef, makes for a great taste.

 

[Phil Perrin]

Tomorrow,yes. Just keep it cold until you cook it. Tomorrow!

Just keep it wrapped and make sure you have no cut veggies exsposed.
