General food standards tell you to disregard food left in the 'danger zone' for 4 hours or more.

It isn't a good idea to put food in the refrigerator right away after cooking it. Cool it down a bit first. The heat load on the refrigerator will very high if something is dumped in there right off a hot burner. If the spaghetti sauce was prepared from fresh and/or freshly opened foods, it will not be adversely affected by leaving it out for four hours, or even six. But it is important to cool and refrigerate foods promptly. Don't get carried away by "pressing your luck" with the margins. Cool your food and get it in the fridge expeditiously.

Preferably, thaw beef under refrigeration. For small cuts of meat - like a steak - plan on one day. For larger cuts, figure at least 24 hours for each 5 pounds. A colder refrigerator (~36 F) will take longer to defrost food than a warmer one (~41 F).
Beef can also be thawed using the cold water method (impervious bag, submerse in cold water and change water every 30 minutes until thawed) or microwave (see oven instructions). These will take less time, but the meat thawed this way must be immediately cooked.
According to USDA, meat can be cooked from frozen, but that will add 50% more cooking time.

Put it in a pan with water just covering it and turn on the heat. The water will absorb the flavour of the beef so I hope your recipe uses the boiled water for something. Otherwise it's a waste of beef stock.

Initial investments may include training, consulting, and process redesign, which can range from a few thousand to several hundred thousand dollars.
