GRILLING GUIDE

Follow the guide below to ensure that you're cooking your meat to a safe internal temperature for consumption. This guide provides recommendations from Agriculture & Agri-Food Canada on safe minimum internal temperatures, which should be measured using a digital thermometer for the most accurate readings. Be sure to check each piece of meat separately if cooking more than one, and use the temperature reading from the middle of the thickest part of the meat (without touching any bone).
