Cooked meat should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours. At that point, it should be refrigerated or reheated.

Cooked meat should be cooled at room temperature for an hour then refrigerated. After 2 hours it is not considered safe at room temperature. Food needs to be kept above 140F AFTER being heated to AT LEAST 160F.
