Expired Chicken

This is why I love my kids LOL

So I take the chicken thighs out of the fridge, open them and start to rinse and clean them in the kitchen sink. I get to thinking, damn.... this chicken might be borderline bad. It doesn't smell super rank or anything but it feels a little slimier than Im used to. Might just be a fatty, slimy pack, I mean some are better than others. I double check the expiration date just for shits and giggles and yeah, its expired, but the chicken had been in the freezer up until about 4 or 5 days ago. It took at least 2 days to thaw out in the fridge so...... we should be..... good? Dammit, this is the last pack of chicken, we aint throwing this shit away! LOL I throw it in a bowl, season it within an inch of its life and throw it back in the fridge.

But then my conscience kicks in. What if its bad though? Yes, it is the last of the chicken, but is it worth the risk of getting sick? Maybe LOL. I go to Googling. "Best way to cook possibly expired chicken" LOL Yeah, I know, but WTF was I supposed to search? LOL Essentially the net left me with "cook the hell out of it and pray for the best" so I call a family meeting. It was sheer comedy explaining to the midgets that the chicken MIGHT not be so fresh and that I had a concern about cooking it. My daughter had a horrified expression on her face which I only wish I had taken a picture of but my son was like nigga, we aight, you better cook that chicken LOL So against my better judgment, I said fuck it. We aint got it like that to be throwing shit away. And its a FAMILY pack at that! LOL My daughter comes in the room about an hour later saying, "Mom.... I just want to let you know that that expired chicken you're cooking smells FANTASTIC!" LMAOOOO!
