Helloo,


I never usually reheat meat after its been cooked, but I did this evening. I reheated my donner kebab what I bought earlier in the night.



Why is it kebab beat (beef, lamb etc) can sit on the skewer and be reheated night after night but it's kind of frowned upon to reheat meat over again in general?

I'm taking guess here, but likely because the shops freezers can go colder then our household fridges?

Seems the guidelines suggest that cooked meat must be instantly put in the freezer and when taken out, be cooked at a high temp again without pause.

Other then that, I don't know, a wild guess in the dark.
 
Why do you think there are so many mornings are spent bombing Armitage Shanks harbour following a kebab the night before?
 
Reheating meat is fine, I do it on a regular basis.

I believe you will find it's "than".
 
There is not a single food stuff I can think of that I haven't reheated, eaten cold or reheated until it's vaguely warm in a way that would give a health inspector a heart attack and it's never caused me a problem.
 
I reguarly reheat meat, veg and even things like rice.

The food poisoning you get from rice is a toxin that is not broken down by heat so reheating rice makes no difference at all to the safety. The issue is a bacteria that survives the boiling and then thrive in the warm cooked rice and. Leaves a toxic residue. You need to quickly cool rice and put it in the fridge.

As for meat, perfectly fine to reheat.

I just leave it in the rice cooker overnight, works fine :confused:
 
Nope, me too.
I could go for a beer and a kebab right now.

You know, I'm thinking I might have a "Work in the morning" session followed by a kebab tonight.

You know the one, where you have about 8 pints and then call it a night at 1am then spend the entire next day half dead at your desk cursing your past self :D

Never done it at work, used to do it in 6th form all the time Friday's were a write off for at least 20 of us who used to go to the local and do the pub quiz with a stop off at the local nightclub and a fleeting visit to the kebab house on the way home.

There isn't.

As said rehearing meat is fine.
Also they aren't reheating it, they're cooking it. The high temp and elephant leg, means only a few mm cook at a time, while the rest stay raw.

Is it just me that has the cold kebab leftovers for breakfast?

I do as well, if you had salad, that has to be discarded though. The meat is nice though.

Exactly, everyone is to paranoid, due to stupid rules from food agency, that are only meant for the extremely dumb. I also leave it out on the side and reheat several times, it can stay out for days and I'll still eat it cold. Use your eyes and nose. Those two will keep you safe 99% of the time and as food poisoning is so uncommon, that 1% is virtually never.
