Potentially hazardous food should not be left at room temperature for more than 2 hours, or only one if the ambient temperature is very warm. At that time, it should be re-heated or refrigerated.

∙ 14y agoLeaving raw meat longer than an hour out of the refrigerator can invite bacteria to form. Raw meat should not be left at room temperature. It should be unrefrigerated only for the short trip from the store to home and for the time it takes to prep it for cooking.

How long do you cook a 16 rib crown roast?
With a roast that big, I wouldn't allow x number of minutes per pound, and then assume its done, you need one of those internal temperature probes. There are these nice digital meat thermometers where you insert the probe into the meat before you start cooking, then the wire goes out your oven door, and there's a little timer attached that you can place on the counter, set the desired finished temperature, and then the alarm goes off when the meat reaches the desired temperature. You want it to go off 5 to 10 degrees before the roast reaches the temperature for the desired level of doneness, because the temperature will continue to rise for a little bit while the meat rests before serving.
