FUCK! Giant expensive lamb joint use by 1st July

[Teenytinydot]

OMG I am such an idiot!

Got a giant joint to do batch cooked lamb curry. I only bought this two days ago on online delivery and it says 1st July Use By.

Should I just cook it anyway?

Help!!!!

It will be absolutely fine, it didnt go of at midnight.

I am sure it will be fine - they have to build in a bit of extra time to these dates so they don’t run as much risk of things going off on their use by date.

yes of course cook it!

Will it still be safe to cook and freeze as batching. Or should we just cook it and eat tonight.

Yes it will be fine to cook and freeze. Or eat.
Once its been cooked you'll get a few days out of it if it stays in the fridge and months if you freeze it.

Right going to do it! Fucking moron I am. I just didn’t think I would need to check so soon! Usually get atleast 3 days.
