General signs for meat: stuffed or assembled, the group USDA lists raw kabobs with vegetables under.

- Filling that has gone slimy, watery or discoloured
- Meat surrounding the stuffing turning grey or sticky
- Packaging that has come loose or lets liquid leak out
- Off smell during cooking that was not there raw

Storage habits that make the difference
Keep stuffed or assembled meat refrigerated at all times before cooking, and cook it within a day or two of purchase. Use a food thermometer to make sure both the meat and the filling reach a safe temperature throughout. Freeze uncooked portions tightly wrapped if you cannot cook them in time.
