Can you leave meat uncovered in the refrigerator?!


Question: Can you leave meat uncovered in the refrigerator?
I'm marinating steak.. the problem is I don't have any way to cover it.
I didn't realize that I was out of foil until it was to late?
Is this dangerous?

Answers:

I don't think it is dangerous..but it will def. dry the meat out....use a large plate or pan for sure to keep the moisture in...good luck!



Meat is super prone to bacteria growth and can grow really quickly! Do you have any ziploc baggys lying around? Maybe put it on a plate and place a large bowl over it upside down to make like a little secure house for it. :)

leaving your meat uncovered makes it go bad quickly, but i wouldn't say dangerous. also, keep your meat covered at all times in the sack, because that could potentially be dangerous.
