How long is thawed out beef good for?

Question

I am thawing out some frozen hamburger meat, but I only need to use about half of it for dinner tonight. I was thinking about using the other half tomorrow night and just puttting the rest of the thawed out beef in the fridge until tomorrow. Is this safe? Do I need to use all of the thawed out meat today?

Answer 1

According to this site it should be good for 2 days.  I think I have had meat in there longer than that but if it smells bad I definately throw it out :)

Answer 2

put the other half in a zip lock and store in fridge

it will turn a little brownm in spot (from defrosting) but it will be ok to eat
