AIBU to say this is not safe to eat?

My partner planned to make an easy slow cooker curry today. When I came home yesterday, he had the raw chicken thighs in the fridge along with the curry sauce he is cooking it in (all this in the internal bowl of slow cooker might I add, so he could just pop it in the main slow cooker this morning to put on).

I have said I don't feel safe eating that when raw meat has been swimming in it all night, even if it is thoroughly cooked through.

YABU - DP is right, its safe
YANBU - do NOT eat the curry

It is just a long marinade. Perfectly fine and probably very tasty.

Frenchfancy · 05/01/2023 17:22

It's called marinating. Why wouldn't it be safe.

AnonKat · 05/01/2023 17:22

That's how you marinade meat.

Whatatimetobealivetoday · 05/01/2023 17:23

have you never heard of marinating?

amiold · 05/01/2023 17:23

What?

Food in a bowl? In the fridge ?

NeverHadANickname · 05/01/2023 17:23

YABU, perfectly safe.

MargieReen · 05/01/2023 17:23

It’s completely fine.

bluebird3 · 05/01/2023 17:24

YABU, it's safe as long as cooked through

I always check if these posters are real and suprisingly usually they are😳

MandaLynn · 05/01/2023 17:25

Eh?

Rebeljustforkicks · 05/01/2023 17:25

GrannyAchingsShepherdsHut · 05/01/2023 17:25

So he marinaded it in the fridge overnight? That's completely normal. Or am I misunderstanding and it was out of the fridge?

Simonjt · 05/01/2023 17:25

Do you understand how cooking works?

Would you eat any of these, pork pie, salmon wellington, tempura prawns, fish fingers, ribs, they are all items that were raw when additional ingredients were added.

Whowhatwherewhenwhynow · 05/01/2023 17:25

This has got to be a joke?

Do you have a fear of sickness, OP?

Do you have a fear of sickness, OP?

People with that usually well educate themselves on processes to avoid sickness.

This reminds me of the thread where the OP was freaking out because her husband was COOKING THE POTATOES IN THE RAW CHICKEN JUICES!!

MilkyYay · 05/01/2023 17:27

This has to be the weirdest thread yet. A delicious over night marinade is being question on food safety grounds

Thank goodness your DP takes the lead on cooking.

belowfrozen · 05/01/2023 17:29

Have you never learnt how to cook? That's how you make good curry.
