The US Department of Agriculture
recommends to cook meat and
poultry thoroughly--meat to at least
an INTERNAL temperature of 160°F
and poultry to at least an INTERNAL
temperature of 180°Fo Cooking to
these temperatures usually protects
against food-borne illness
The closer you place foods to the
broil element, the faster foods brown
on the outside yet remain red to pink
in the center.
Moving meats away from the element
will allow the meat to cook to the
center while browning on the outside.
Cook side 1 at least 2 minutes longer
than side 2 If your oven is connected
to 208 volts, you may want to use a
higher rack position and/or broil
foods longer
The size, weight, thickness, starting
temperature, and your preference of
the doneness of the meat will affect
