It depends on what cooked meat you are talking about because everything is different.

It not only depends on which cooked meat, but also on how well is was cooked, how it was handled before refrigeration, what packaging is used and the actual temperature at which it is stored.

A reasonable guideline is to use it within 3 or 4 days.

Meats are kept better in the freezer. Meats can be kept in the refrigerator for 3 to 4 days if raw and 1 to 2 days longer if cooked. Always place cooked meats in an airtight container.
