If you are referring to a raw steak that has been thawing in the fridge (at proper settings) for the past 3 days, then it is probably safe to cook and eat as long as it was safe to cook and eat prior to being frozen.

After 5 days, the steaks would likely not be much less safe than when originally put in the refrigerator. By now, the steaks could easily be growing a slimey layer of yeast. That won't necessarily be pathogenic, because I don't know of any yeasts that are foodborne pathogens, but that would affect the flavor.

If it was properly frozen the whole time it should be OK. they were eating extinct mammoth that have been frozen for many thousands of years last century.

Regardless of the answer, I already ate it a few hours after asking the question. No issues so far... I think I'm in the clear.

Safe to eat a fish frozen for two years?

Most fish will remain safe to eat for up to six months. Fish that are fatty, such as salmon and tuna should keep for 2-3 months when frozen. Fish that are lean, such as cod and catfish will keep for up to 6 months when frozen. It would not be safe to eat fish that was frozen for 2 years because it would most likely be spoiled and could cause food poisoning.

Can you cook a steak that's been in the freezer four three months?

If the steaks have been wrapped tightly and there is no freezer burn, they should be safe to eat. Frozen food will essentially be safe indefinitely, however it will lose quality the longer it is frozen.
