New to smoking

[renorn]

Hello,

I'm Bob and I live in Reno.  I bought a Mastercraft Electric a few months ago and I am learning to use it slowly.  Any thoughts from anyone about how long it is safe to leave meat out after smoking before refrigerating?

Thanks!

  Good afternoon and welcome to the forum, from a warm & partly cloudy day in East Texas and the best site on the web. Lots of great people with tons of information on just about  everything.

Thanks for the warm welcome from Reno, NV....just a few thunderstorms and flash floods at the moment.   :-)

Welcome Bob!

Use the search bar for any questions you may have and you will be amazed at the results.  From what I've read, once meat gets below 140 degrees, the bacteria will start to multiply.
