After thawing in the refrigerator, ground meat should be used as soon as possible. Once meat has been frozen and thawed, it will deteriorate more rapidly than if it had never been frozen. Whole meat cuts (chops, roasts) will remain useable for another 3-5 days in the refrigerator before cooking.
A whole chicken is good for up to a year, but piecesâlegs, wings, thighsâshould be used within six to nine months. For cooked chicken leftovers: four to six months.
