In general, smoked meat steaks, or any food for that matter, should not stay out of the fridge for more than 4 hours. This is because foods that sit at room temperature are in the Temperature Danger Zone (TDZ for short), which ranges from 41oF to 135oF. Since the average room temperature is between 60oF and 72oF, room temperature foods have a much higher chance of collecting germs that will grow in the food (like a smoked meat steak) than if it is left in the fridge, which has an average temperature of 25oF to 34oF, which is outside the TDZ.
