Best Answer

The danger zone for any food is four to sixty degrees. It can stay in this zone for up to four hours, after that spoilage will begin and bacteria begins to grow. After two hours your turkey should still be ok to cook, just be sure to cook it to al full 180 degrees. Check for this temperature with a meat thermometer in the thickest part of the thigh.
