Posted - Apr 02 2009 : 5:48:04 PM I would probably throw it out just to be safe. I would measure the temp first- if it stayed above 165 degrees then it should still be okay. I would feel better if the original temp had been higher to kill any bacteria, but after just 2 hours in a low temp roast like that, the core might not of even been warm yet.
