How long does it take for cooked ground chuck to spoil?

Question

I grilled ground chuck burgers last night and I accidentally left them on the counter until about 5:00 this morning. Are they completely ruined?

Answer 1

when in doubt, throw it out! don;t eat that, its not worth being sick,,

Answer 2

I am really sorry....but I would call it a day and throw the lil suckers away. It frustrates me so much when I do that! Last night was a beef stir fry....by the time I go to bed I can't even think and then in the morning I turn on the kitchen light and scream NOOOOOOOO!!!! LOL

I can't begin to tell you over the course of time how often I have done it so I have looked up everything I can find on it in hopes of saving some quite yummy dishes! Sorry!!
