Partially defrosted food?`

[C~Q]

Thats what I heard...that you can refreeze defrosted food without cooking as long as it hasn't been defrosted in the microwave...

If its been partially defrosted in the fridge you can refreeze it as is, but if it is completely defrosted or was defrosted outside the fridge then you cant refreeze it.

Ok thanks. I realised what happened...Sat night I had a power cut and had to switch off and unplug everything. I plugged the fridge back in but forgot to switch it on so everything in the freezer is defrosted

Thinking it would have been totally defrosted by about...Mon??? If the freezer was off fbut sealed from Sat night. So do you think I could cook them up today or chuck them out? (Sausages I mean, i'm chucking the chick mince )

Was the freezer still cold when you opened it?

You will be fine cooking the meat, the chicken...meh not so much if it wasn't cold lol
