Detailed explanation-1: -The USDA recommends steaks and roasts be cooked to 145°F (medium) and then rested for at least 3 minutes. To ensure food safety, ground beef should be cooked to a minimum 160°F (well done).
Detailed explanation-2: -Check the New Recommended Temperatures. Cook pork, roasts, and chops to 145 ºF as measured with a food thermometer, then allow the meat to rest for three minutes before carving or consuming.
Detailed explanation-3: -Medium Rare (130°-140°F) A “medium rare” steak will be warm in the center. The steak will begin firming up on the exterior, but will remain very soft and tender in the center. A small ring of pink will begin developing around the edge, but the steak will still be primarily red in the center.
