Smoking pork shoulder and Traeger turned off HELP!!!

[jaimeruns]

I started a pork shoulder butt last night and checked on it at 5:30am, it was doing great and the temp was at 160- I'm guessing at the stall. I fell back asleep until 8:00 and checked it again and and the Traeger was OFF!!! My meat temp is now at 115. I'm totally freaking out that it ruined my meat. The thing is, I don't know when the grill turned off, but at the most it could have been 2.5 hours. I turned the grill back on and I'm going to get the heat back up ASAP.... but is there a possibility that it could have sat in the danger zone for too long? Also any suggestions on how to save it? My party starts at 3pm today so I had a goal to get it off the grill by then at the latest to let it sit and then shred it to serve at 4-4:30. 

Thanks so much, 

I'm going to frantically search through other posts as well.

Fire it back up and get back to cooking. You were above the safe cook temp for pork. Everything should be fine.

Thank you! I did just that. Got it back up to 160 after an hour. Cooked it another 4 hours, just pulled it off and it's falling apart. I can't wait to eat this thing.
