Answer: Youâve got some breathing room. Ground beef thatâs been defrosted in the fridge can be safely kept for an additional one to two days in the refrigerator before cooking, says the U.S. Department of Agriculture. And since you thawed the ground beef in the fridge, you can also safely refreeze it within that same timeframe, says the USDA.
You can do one of 2 things. I routinely do either and have never had any ill effects due to the cooking process. Once is place ground beef in plastic bag and place into a bowl with cold water. Change every 1/2 hour until thawed flipping meat each time. The other thing is to put it into your pot with about 1 cup of water and cover. Checking periodically so that you can scrape away the outer layers as they cook.
