Can I eat hamburgers that have sat out?

Question

I grilled some hamburgers last night. After dinner, I put the rest of them in the fridge in a tupperwear container. This morning, I was going to take the leftovers to work, however, I accidentally left the tupperware on the coffee table. Will they be okay when I get home tonight? I'll heat them up in the microwave before I eat them, of course.

Answer 1

How many hours will it be from the time you took them out of the fridge to the time you get home this evening?  You forgot to mention that.  The one thing you have going for you is that its not chicken.  If you're going to eat it anyway....heat it up well and don't complain to your wife when you get sick.  HAHA  I agree with you though about the BBQ sauce...it cures everything.

Answer 2

If your house has A/C in it' I don't see what it will hurt if you heat them up well.

Answer 3

i'd eat them - just make sure there really hot. enjoy!! xx

Answer 4

It should be fine. Make sure you reheat it well.
