I bought a couple of ribeyes a couple of weeks ago, and I'm hungry. But I'm also not sure they're good. Would I be able to tell by looking at them or smelling them?

as long as it's not green.....that would be waiting just a little too long...even for me.

USDA marks package to sell by 3 or 4 days after packaged. If sealed they should still be good for a week. After that you should freeze them before they start to smell bad. If they don't smell bad after a week, they are probably still good. That's where you get the phrase aged beef from.

There should be a "use by" date on the label, but a couple of weeks in the fridge is probably way too long. I know they "age" steaks for weeks, but probably under certain conditions. When in doubt throw it out. You should have put them in the freezer.

My mom usually says after 2-3 days, it must be cooked.

Good question. Have you ever heard of aged beef? It's probably brown by now, but if it smells bad chuck it out. Better yet, cook it up and feed it to your dog. IF you do decide to cook it, make sure it is wellllll done!

if they are frozen just thaw them out in the refrigerator 24 hrs before eating if they are unfrozen throw them away.
