Title: Internal Meat Temperatures
Post by: Luckie Stiff on June 06, 2010, 08:09:52 PM
If you haven't yet, go buy yourself an instant read thermometer. You'll thank me later.
This is the one I have, it's about $15 at any kitchen store (Bed Bath & Beyond, Kohl's, Target, etc)
It's got all the temps pre programmed into it, pretty sweet deal. DO NOT leave it in the meat while it's cooking.

I use the remote kind with the long wire on the probe, you can get them for $30- $40 and dont have to worry about the temps fluctuating because you keep opening the door or lid.
