Answers:
I say no way !. !. !.especially pork !. !. !.throwing out the meat is less costly than a trip to the hospital !. !. food poisoning !. !. !.Www@FoodAQ@Com

it depends on the bacteria level to begin with

bacteria at optimum temperature multiply every 20 mins

for example
0 mins 100
20 mins 200
40 mins 400
60 mins 800
80 mins 1600
100 mins 3200

well you get the drift anyway I would not eat it too riskyWww@FoodAQ@Com

Yes it is but it might be Little dry so I suggest adding some kind of broth or stock to the bottom of the pan and cooking it in the oven for about 30 minutes or until it's warm and most of the stock or broth is gone!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

In my experience the only way to tell if it's safe, is to heat it in a microwave or over the gas!.

The resulting aroma/stench will tell you!.

This test has never failed me!.

Try it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Well imagine all the germs in the air attaching to yr pork!?!? Do you still wana eat it!. U may nt die bt its nt the best thing to do unless ur tht hungry!Www@FoodAQ@Com
