Can you leave gravy out all night?

In: Food & Cooking [Edit categories]

Answer:

It would not be safe to do so. It could easily grow lots of bacteria and make you sick. If it is heavy on the grease and the grease seals the rest of the broth by turning solid, it might be okay, but you have to get it really hot to insure that any bacteria are killed.
