COOKING GUIDE
The following chart is meant to be used as a guideline only. Cooking time will
depend on the thickness of the food. To be sure your food is cooked, USDA
recommends using a meat thermometer to test for doneness. Insert the meat
thermometer into the thickest part of the meat until the temperature stabilizes.
