Cooking Meat/Meatballs

Question
I bought 6bls of chop meat and fried them yesterday and forgot to put them in the frig last night(they were not fully cooked just fried 1/2 way)- so they stayed on my counter overnight covered with aluminum foil...can I put them in my sauce to fully cook them or do I have to get rid of the meat?

Answer
Maria:
Is better not to eat that kind of meat. The problem is when you use meat  that contains bones and you cook it fully, there is an enormous risk of food poisoning.

Next time cook completely and store under freezing or refrigerating conditions,

Good luck,
Enrique
