USDA Revises Recommended Cooking Temperature for Pork to 145 �F! Finally, Pork Doesn't Have To Be As Tough As Leather. WASHINGTON, May 24, 2011 - The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) is updating its recommendation for safely cooking pork, steaks, roasts, and chops. USDA recommends cooking all whole cuts of meat to 145 �F as measured with a food thermometer placed in the thickest part of the meat, then allowing the meat to rest for three minutes before carving or consuming. This change does not apply to ground meats, including ground beef, veal, lamb, and pork, which should be cooked to 160 �F and do not require a rest time. The safe cooking temperature for all poultry products, including ground chicken and turkey, remains at 165 �F. You can read the complete report from the USDA by clicking here.
Don't forget to order your Notebook Size Meat Cutting Charts (pictured below) to use as a handy reference guide to ALL the beef cuts available! These charts are extremely useful if you cut your own beef or just want to know what options you have at the Butcher Shop or Grocery Store Meat Department!
