The general rule for refreezing foods that have been thawed, is that you should only refreeze if there are still ice crystals present in it, or after it has been cooked. If you do refreeze, you should also reduce the amount of time before you use the food as well, since the partial thaw may have allowed spoilage to progress slightly.
