Help with a cooking question!
Jan. 4th, 2010 05:44 pmI am growing to dislike my crockpots immensely. My small one and middle sized one are arranged slightly differently. Meaning, the way the heat settings are arranged on the dial.
Here's my problem. Apparently, after setting the chicken on high for a couple of hours, I thought I'd moved it down to Low. Instead, I moved the dial over to "Warm" and NOT low as I thought I'd had. The chicken has been at the Low heat for, I dunno, 6 hours?
Do you think it's still okay to eat? I checked it, and it seemed to be cooked *almost* all the way through. I could stick the whole fucking concoction into the oven and simply finish it at a high temperature. Would that kill any bacteria that might have grown during the WARM setting? I simply don't want to waste the food. It seems like I do something bone-headed like this every fifth time I use the thing.
Help? Opinions?
