Why is my chicken still bloody?!


Question: I ran the probe through my chicken thigh i just fried and it was 188F...but when i opened it down in the center..even though all the meat was cooked...there was blood in it...although it was extremely hot...is this safe? Why is there still blood if its fully cooked?

If the chicken had been previously frozen it wasn't blood,but leaked out of the bones. Its prefectly safe to eat. I've had it occur ever after slow cooking chicken until it literally fell of the bone.

this happened to me yesterday I threw out the bloody parts (most of it)
I wouldn't eat that.
I hate when this happens though ruins your feast....

It's not cooked thoroughly. Don't eat it.

I'm not gonna joke with you......you have to cook by time not temp, REGARDLESS of what most say.........that is the time to be bacteria free, not done. I see folks on here bake a chicken in 35 to 40 mins. Where I come from that is impossible, unless it's raw chicken must be well done. it's not steak.

At 188 it was cooked (over cooked) I don't know what you are seeing but its cooked if your temp probe is accurate.
