Friendly's.

I didn't know they still existed. But I just looked it up and there are still a few out near where I grew up. I used to love their sundaes with the little monster faces.

^ I was actually thinking about food safety today, and having a kind of brain fog - so I made use of a timer to make sure the homemade soup got put into the 'frig in good time.
.

Well, FWIW, the saltiness of the soup and the relative lack of easily spoiled ingredients gives you a lot more leeway. Also, I recommend using a laser thermometer. Not least because it’s fun to talk about your laser thermometer, lol! It measures surface temperature instantly, but won’t replace the meat thermometer.

I wanted to invent a laser meat thermometer, but it turns out that the beam would have to get into the center of the thing to be measured, and a laser that powerful would be useless as a thermometer, seeing as it would vaporize the meat on contact. Oh well, the lightbulb had a few failed prototypes, too.

I've read that as long as one does not open the lid, it's fine to leave a pot of soup which has come to a rolling boil on the stove overnight and have some for breakfast. I have been cooking for many years and have not tested that one. lol. @LumberJack this soup was as yet unsalted, and had a combination of lentils and veggies and a few bits of minced uncured ham, so it needed to be kept either hot or quite cold. It's when we leave food tepid or warm that the bacteria have a field day, and we or our guests can end up with gastroenteritis. I have an extra trick of asorts of adding just a pinch of ascorbic acid to a dish before storage to increase the acidity and help preserve its freshnesss. Powdered vitamin C in other words. I keep it around to add to smoothies and as an inexpensive source of vitamin C.

I forgot to add, I'm having old fashioned beef pot roast and veggies tonight, with mash on the side.
