@meatdad: It’s Slimy in Appearance or to the Touch If you have bad meat or spoilage, a slimy surface film that you can see or feel on a piece of steak is a tell-tale sign. It’ll be clear or yellowish in color but will make the steak appear shinier than usual. It will also have a slippery or sticky feel when you run your fingers over it. Bad steak will usually get this slimy film on it a couple of days before it begins to mold. Mold, of course, is a definite sign that your once fresh steak is now loaded with harmful bacteria, and its quality is no longer safe to eat. If you don’t yet see film on your steak, but it has a strange color, like more brown, yellow, or green than the bright, purplish red meat color it should have, you might also have spoiled beef. You might see just a few patches of discoloration rather than the whole steak slab, but spots of odd color are still a sign that you should avoid eating it. A rancid cut of steak will start to resemble more of a tuna steak, which is not quite the meal you’re going for. It Has an Off-Putting Smell Raw steak doesn’t necessarily smell the greatest, but you’ll usually be able to tell a distinct difference between a good, fresh steak and a spoiled steak just by using your nose. A spoiled steak will have a potent odor that no longer smells like raw steak but instead has an ammonia-clad aroma. You’ll definitely know the odor when you smell it, and it’s a sure-fire sign that you should not plan to eat it!
