How To Use a Food Thermometer

Use an instant-read food thermometer to check the internal temperature toward the end of the cooking time, but before the food is expected to be "done!."
The food thermometer should be placed in the thickest part of the food and should not be touching bone, fat, or gristle!.
Compare your thermometer reading to the USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures to determine if your food has reached a safe temperature!.
Make sure to clean your food thermometer with hot, soapy water before and after each use!

Large-dial oven-safe or oven-probe thermometers may be used for the duration of cooking!.

Because there are so many types of food thermometers, it is important to follow the instructions for your food thermometer!.

USDA Recommended Safe Minimum Internal Temperatures

Steaks & Roasts - 145 °F
Fish - 145 °F
Pork - 160 °F
Ground Beef - 160 °F
Egg Dishes - 160 °F
Chicken Breasts - 165 °F
Whole Poultry - 165 °F

Seeing Isn't Believing
Many people assume that if a hamburger is brown in the middle, it is done!. However, looking at the color and texture of food is not enough—you have to use a food thermometer to be sure! According to USDA research, 1 out of every 4 hamburgers turns brown before it reaches a safe internal temperature!. The only safe way to know if meat, poultry, and egg dishes are "done" is to use a food thermometer!. When a hamburger is cooked to 160 °F, it is both safe and delicious!Www@FoodAQ@Com
