COOK FOOD TO PROPER TEMPERATURES

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cooking food safely requires that you raise the internal temperature of the meat high enough

and for a long enough period of time to kill any food-borne bacteria that may cause illnesses.
Color is not the best indicator that food is safe to eat. Use a high-quality probe thermometer

to be sure your food is properly cooked. Place the tip of an instant-read thermometer into the

center of the thickest part of the food but at least 1/2 inch deep. Read the temperature after

about 10 seconds. Follow the temperature guidelines for the type of food you’re cooking.
The following guidelines are from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration Center for Food 

Safety andApplied Nutrition.
