If frozen you can cook the beef at 400 degrees for 1 hour, then turn down the heat to 330. People have a tendency to cook their meats too fast. DO NOT SALT meat because it toughens it. You can marinade your beef or pork over night or first thing in the morning or instructions according to your recipe. Glazing pork or beef is usually done 15 - 20 minutes before taking out of the oven. When meat is frozen it cooks faster so you should gauge your cooking time to 15 mins., per pound.
Never leave raw meat out on the counter even if there is a cover over it. Always keep it in the refrigerator until you are ready to cook it.
Any leftover cooked meat can be frozen again.
Always smell your meat. Sound crazy? I do it all the time and so far have had to take two steaks, 3 pork roasts and one beef roast back to the store because it had a sour (rancid) smell to it. When in doubt throw it out or take it back to the store you bought it from. They have to give you your money back.
The safe answer is "No". But it may still be good. Fat in the stew tends to protect the meat. It could be thoroughly re-heated to boiling to minimize any germs, but then totally eaten and not allowed to stay out again. To be perfect safe, throw it out.
"Color of Beef
Beef muscle meat not exposed to oxygen (in vacuum packaging, for example) is a burgundy or purplish color. After exposure to the air for 15 minutes or so, the myoglobin receives oxygen and the meat turns bright, cherry red.
After beef has been refrigerated about 5 days, it may turn brown due to chemical changes in the myoglobin. Beef that has turned brown during extended storage may be spoiled, have an off-odor, and be tacky to the touch."

Was it frozen??? once the meat hits room temprature Bacteria starts to grow.does it smell bad (SOUR?) no then it should be ok. if it smells sour its from the bacteria doing its business in your meat!Toss it!! IF its cooked i always follow the 24 hour rule.otherwise 3-4 days in the fridge.
How long? Well, beef can stay in the freezer for about 1-2
Months but NO more than that. If it stays in too long, it will get frostbite and not taste as well as it would if you got it out between the 1-2 month time period. Enjoy!! :D
