I wouldn't put it back in the freezer, but MIL does it all the time. Drives me nuts! Maybe because she gave me food poisoning before... chopsuey on "If you thaw something in the fridge, by when do you have to use it?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-thaw-something-in-the-fridge-by-when-do-you-have-to-use-it#post-1136929 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 17:56:21 +0000 chopsuey 1136929@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I would cook it tomorrow. Once it's cooked you can throw it back in the freezer. I think there's a no refreezing meat law somewhere. :P swedishfish on "If you thaw something in the fridge, by when do you have to use it?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-thaw-something-in-the-fridge-by-when-do-you-have-to-use-it#post-1136927 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 17:55:17 +0000 swedishfish 1136927@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I don't think you can freeze it again but you should be able to use it tomorrow. We defrost chicken for a day, marinate for a day, and then cook it.

But I'm not. It's completely defrosted now. By when do I have to use it? Can I refreeze it?
