Detailed explanation-1: -Note: There are three important temperatures to remember when cooking meat or eggs at home: Eggs and all ground meats must be cooked to 160°F; poultry and fowl to 165°F; and fresh meat steaks, chops and roasts to 145°F.
Detailed explanation-2: -Hamburger patties: cook to an internal temperature of 155˚F (68˚C) for fifteen seconds.
Detailed explanation-3: -Cooking of Ground Beef The FDA Food Code says that restaurants should cook ground beef to 155°F for 15 seconds. But CDC and USDA say that consumers should cook ground beef to 160°F. The guidance for consumers is different because it is simpler to meet one standard (temperature) than two (temperature and time).
Detailed explanation-4: -Ground Meats: This change does not apply to ground meats, including beef, veal, lamb, and pork, which should be cooked to 160 ºF and do not require a rest time. Poultry: The safe cooking temperature for all poultry products, including ground chicken and turkey, stays the same at 165 ºF.
Detailed explanation-5: -Medium-Well Steak Internal Temperature The internal temperature of a medium-well steak should be 150-155 degrees Fahrenheit.
