be sure food has reached a safe internal temperature, and cut into
food to check for visual signs of doneness.
• We recommend food to be at least 40°F before cooking in your
appliance.
• Whole poultry should reach 165° F. Juices should run clear and
flesh should not be pink.
• Beef, veal and lamb steaks, roasts and pork chops can be cooked
to 160° F.
• NEVER partially cook meat or poultry and finish cooking later.
Cook food completely to destroy harmful bacteria.
• Use a meat thermometer to ensure proper internal food
temperatures.
Food Safety
Food safety is a very important part of enjoying the outdoor
cooking experience. To keep food safe from harmful bacteria,
follow these four basic steps:
Clean: Wash hands, utensils, and surfaces with hot soapy water
before and after handling raw meat and poultry.
Separate: Separate raw meats and poultry from ready-to-eat
foods to avoid cross contamination. Use a clean platter and
utensils when removing cooked foods.
Cook: Cook meat and poultry thoroughly to kill bacteria. Use a
thermometer to ensure proper internal food temperatures.
Chill: Refrigerate prepared foods and leftovers promptly.
