This question is one of those that gets a wide range of answers, depending upon how 'by the book' or risk-averse you are. My answer is 'i wouldn't hesitate to cook and eat that pork." But then, I am not a 'by the book' person in anything, and I firmly believe that there is MUCH more flexibility (w/o being dangerous) with proteins at room temp. If you had said it sat overnight at room temp, i would probably counsel you to trash it, but 90 minutes? doesn't concern me in the least. Heck, I'm sure there have been a dozen times that i have seared meat for boeuf bourgignon or other, and i've been distracted or called away, and returned to the cooking a few hours later, and 40 years later, we're all still alive and kickin'! just sayin'.
