Smoked 100 lb of pork shoulder Thursday for my parents 50th anniversary party Saturday at 5pm. We pulled the pork and vacuum sealed each pork butt in gallon size bags. Put in the fridge around 9pm last night and stacked several of them. I was horrified when I went out to the fridge at 6:30 this morning and several of the bags still hadn’t cooled down. I think there was just too much meat, too tightly packed in there.
Even though the meat was vacuum sealed, I’m super concerned about the safety serving it. My dad thought it would be fine since it was sealed. I quickly threw a few in the freezer and separated the others.
Appreciate your thoughts… may need to call caterers asap!!!!
