You mention that bottled beers should be served at a much cooler temperature than cask ales but what about bottle conditioned British ales? Nick Paul Jones Ideally bottled beers should be stored half way between the two so about 8 degrees although most places donât have the spare fridge space to sp this.
Trust me, it's easier to discard some leftovers than to go through a real toilet-hugging, stomach-pumping bout of food poisoning. Cooked chicken should not be left unrefrigerated for more than 2 hours. Less time is better. Make that only one hour if the ambient temperature is very warm. If it hasn't been consumed by then, it should be re-heated or refrigerated. It needs to stay out of the temperature danger zone which is 135Â°F to 40Â°F.
Duration Cooked Meat Can be Left Out. In most food establishments, 4 hours is the maximum duration that a cooked meat is allowed to stand on the shelf when the room temperature is between 40F to 140F. At temperatures less than 40F, foods can remain bacteria free for a longer duration.In fact, when cooked meat (gravy, broth or dry fried) is refrigerated at a temperature between 32 to 40F, it can stay consumable for close 3-4 days.here can be circumstances in a household where cooked foods need to sit on the counter for a while, before being served to eat. The question then arises on how long can cooked food be left out before it becomes unsafe for consumption.
