you can steam it.....but its better to straight up slow roast that bad boy...... or, if you are the man, you can sous vide it and cook to 65 degrees celsius... but I doubt you roll like that or you can cook it in a chicken broth with a few sprigs of rosemary and thyme.....don't bring to the boil at all....just a slow slow simmer......until you can insert a cake tester (which is essentially just a long needle) and there is no resistance. Then you can flavor-blast it with caramelised onions and some Russian dressing style
Foods that are left out in room temperature for more than an hour can begin bacteria growth. Our stomach acids can kill some of these bacterias but not all and some can make you very sick. Keep foods OUT of the danger zone- Above 45 degrees and Below 145 degrees. Between these temperatures bacteria lives and breeds on our foods.
