Is It Okay to Partially Cook Beef and Store It For Later?

Never partially cook or brown beef to be refrigerated. This because partially cooking beef does not destroy bacteria present in raw meat. By waiting to finish the cooking process, you give bacteria an opportunity to multiply and thrive on the partially cooked meat.
