How Do You Know If Chicken Stock Is Bad?
There are several signs that chicken stock has gone bad, including a sour or rancid odor, a cloudy or murky appearance, and visible mold or discoloration. Additionally, if the stock has been stored for an extended period of time or if it has not been properly refrigerated, it may be unsafe to consume even if there are no noticeable signs of spoilage. When in doubt, it is always better to err on the side of caution and discard any chicken stock that you suspect may be spoiled.
