What Temperature Should I Cook Meat To?

what-temperature-to-cook-meatCooking meat to the correct internal temperatures is one of the basic food safety rules. The best way to ensure you have reached the correct temperature is to use a food thermometer. 

How to use a food thermometer:

  • Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the meat. Insert all the way to the middle but avoid touching any bone.
  • For burgers, insert food thermometer through the side of the patty not through the top.
  • Check each piece of meat separately.
  • Use a digital thermometer for more accurate readings.
