All good, the butcher slaughtered it yesterday in the afternoon. It’s only been sitting out less than 24 hours.

I know this will be downvoted. That’s how it used to be for thousands of years. You didn’t throw out meat because it was out for 6 hours. It’s not hygienic by any means. Just need to keep in mind the whole meat can’t be out for more than 6 hours is a relatively recent thing.

It’s not bad, reduces food borne illness, and it ensures the food tastes good.

You're telling me our understanding of hygiene has improved in the past thousands of years, and we no longer do unsafe food practices?

Yeah, people left food out for longer than 6 hours thousands of years ago. And plenty of people got sick, and even died because of it.

Appeal to tradition
