I'm guessing the chicken is the least of your worries!.
Anyway, I'd wash it off thoroughly in cold water and cook it right away!. It should be OK!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

it will be fine!. any germs that could have been accumulated in that short amount of time will go away if you cook it thoroughly!.

as for your husband, everyone makes mistakes!. I'm sure he wouldn't appreciate you talking about him that way!. besides, a week from now you'll probably look back on this and laugh!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If the chicken was thawed when it was put on the grill and not frozen, then I would definitely not eat it, because that would be too much time to allow germs and bacteria to flourish on it!. It would not be worth the risk to you and your family's health and safety! Www@FoodAQ@Com

Only 3 hours your raw chicken will not turn bad, if you marinated it will test better, you can grill, bake, fry or boil, Good luck!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

I would toss it out just to be safe!. I would rather lose a chicken than be sick!.

Chicken is more susceptible to salmonella than other meat!. So I would definitely rather be safe than sorry!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
