Poultry that is cooked can be a potentially hazardous food if not properly refrigerated. Once the temperature has gotten above 40 degrees Fahrenheit for more than 2 hours, the food should be discarded. The food might not actually appear spoiled but foodbourne pathogens and toxins do not make their presence known until many hours after the food has been consumed. The two hour guideline is conservative, but it would be better to discard the food than to suffer the consequences.
