      We've got a roast that we unfroze and can't tell if it's good or not; how can we tell for sure? Pic: http://yfrog.com/mveczoj

      The discoloring is just oxidation, so I wouldn't worry too much about that. How long did you have it before freezing it? How long was it frozen for? How did you defrost it? And does it smell ok?
