No. Ground meat in particular is dangerous to leave at room temperature. Any bacteria that were on the surface of the meat have been ground up and are now inside the meat. Leaving it at room temperature has permitted growth of bacteria.

No, it is not safe. Most cooked foods will start to grow bacteria within two hours of being stored at room temperature. The bacteria quickly multiplies, and if eaten, may cause serious food poisoning.

Bacteria growth is tasteless and odourless, so don't be fooled into thinking it's "okay" to eat if it is not refridgerated.

Professional answer: Any type of ground meat left out at room temperature for more than two hours, should be thrown away, to avoid the risk of food poisoniing.

No. You never know if there was something like a fly that landed on it, and flies can carry various deadly diseases. If you would have covered it in plastic wrap or tin foil, it would be safe. But since it was just left out all night, it is not safe to eat. I'm concerned, if you eat it, that it might affect your health. Please don't eat it.

No, overnight is too long to leave the uncooked roast out. After all, the uncooked roast is essentially decaying flesh of a dead animal. There's no telling what insects might come in contact with the meat and lay eggs.
