[ARCHIVED THREAD] - So I just had a blow up family argument because I would not eat raw chicken. (Page 1 of 5)

Posted: 10/31/2015 9:41:09 PM EDT

So long story short, while sitting down to dinner I bit into an allegedly fully cooked barbecue chicken leg only to find the inside not only pink and raw looking/feeling but bright red blood was actually oozing out. Naturally I refused to take another bite which caused my liberal uncle who was the one who claimed to have cooked it "for an hour at 375" to snatch the chicken off the table, throw the whole thing, including the sides, in the trash while screaming at me and ranting that his was "fine" and that I was an "ungrateful son of a bitch," and "wanted (my) chicken burned." Anyone else have similar experiences with crazy ass relatives?

Also, how sick am I going to get from the bite of under cooked chicken I ate before his rampage?

Any chefs in here who can think of a reason why ACTUALLY cooked chicken would turn out like that?

I'm feeling slightly I'll now (about an hour later), am I worrying about nothing and psyching myself out, or am I in for an interesting couple of days?

Depending, chicken can still have a red or pink color when cooked.

Depends. If it was the hippie free range happy chicken, you'll probably be ok. If it was the cheap Walmart sitting in a FSA cart chicken, you're doomed.

you'll be fine. You're probably making yourself sick (psychosomatic). It's possible you'll actually get sick, but if you didn't swallow (snicker) you'll probably be fine.

As for the relatives, that's just weird. I'm guessing there's a bit more history than this single incident cause if not, and maybe even if so, your uncle may seriously need to see a psychologist for rage issues or something.

Today's chickens are fed lots of hormones to increase size and growth rate. As a result, the bones are still soft when they are harvested. This allows marrow/blood/etc to migrant from the center of the bones to the meat. Freezing is believed to worsen this issue. The problem exhibits itself more on the smaller, thicker boned pieces such as thighs and legs.

You will be fine. As long as it was cooked to 165F. If not, you will die.

Next time, man the fuck up.

You take that chicken out of the trash, beat the fuck out of your liberal uncle, and then eat the fucking raw chicken while he picks his chiclets up off the floor.

Jesus man, don't be a pussy.

If blood was running out, definitely a no go. Sometimes chicken can be pink or even red next to the bone. A good way to tell if it's ok or not is to dab it with a white napkin. If the napkin comes away red, no go. If the napkin is still white, it's just the meat coloring next to the bone. A whole chicken assuming somewhere between 4.5 to 6 pounds usually would take me very close to 2 hours at 375.

Invite him over for dinner next week. Cook two different servings of chicken, one under cooked and one done. Wait for him to shit and vomit himself inside out. Take video. Play it for him on your phone every time you see him for the rest of his retarded life.

Liberal?

I know hindsight is 20/20, but you should have refused to eat it simply because it once had a face...and then accuse your uncle of not being liberal enough.

that should be the last time you ever see the uncle

tell your parents or aunt or whoever that you will not be around the guy again

and then stick to it

My wife is a food service manager so under cooked chicken is a no-go in my house. 2-2.5 hours for a chicken in our house is the norm. You uncle sounds like an imature spoiled brat.

He overreacted because he knew he fucked up.

I personally find nothing more irritating than cooking a piece of meat for hours and then finding the damn thing still not be completely done. Chicken is notorious for this and is the reason I invested in meat thermometers.

Yes, a whole chicken needs longer than 1 hour to completely cook at 375.

Just a pan of wings takes 45 min. at 375.

Your uncle sounds like a real charmer, having no more self control than that. I don't think I'd be hanging out much with him after that tantrum.
