SO, I had my smoker going last night, and all we well. So I decided to take a nap. I was asleep for about 4 hours (an hour and a half longer than I wanted to). Well, I come out to check my temps and my smoker flame had gone out and the smoker was sitting at 85 degrees and the meat at 116. I have no idea how long it was out, sometime in that 4 hour period.
Therefore the meat has been in the danger zone for more than 4 hours. Should I toss it at this point? Any one else experience this? While I have done this before, I will never, do this again!
