Serious question.

I am cooking up a real nice joint of boneless lamb, we bought it a little while ago and froze it. I took it out of the freezer (can't remember when) and left it in the fridge. It's now time too cook.

The meat had a slight smell to it, not too bad, but there was an odour and it was a little slimey to the touch. But it's such a good bit of meat it seems worth a go.

I'm thinking about beef that is hung for days, that essentially goes off, but we still eat it and cook it.

This meat is raw and will be blasted in the oven at a high heat. Surely that will kill the germs?!

Anyway, it's in now. But if I am about to kill myself, then please let me know!
