Answers: does it dry up and lose flavor? i think it does whats your opinion

It will dry up if you dont cover it up properly and defenitely loose flavor. I know I do most of the cooking at home and hate putting meat in the fridge because of this.

Well, most times it will have a film of grease over it. Thats usually what happens to beef stew and hamburgers that I place right after cooking.

It gets cold..

it keeps flavor seald in when you warm it put the juices on it

i think it does but when u just cocked or grilled something it always taste better

it can cause harmful bactreia to grow which can alter flavor. Not to mention the heat from the meat will cause other food in the fridge to warm up.

When you put a cover on hot food and put it in fridge the steam come up and forms condensation on the cover, the warmish top layer of the food grows bacteria before it has a chance to cool all the way and then the bacteria laden condensation drips back into the food.

its best to let cool uncovered on the counter.

no it just gets cold.

nothing other than causing the fridge temp to go up a lil so ur fridge will work a lil harder to maintain the right temp. n anyways, who would store food right after grilling it? we usually eat our food after grilling.
