TEMPERATURE REFERENCE GUIDE

F R E Q U E N T LY A S K E D Q U E S T I O N S

Can food be overcooked?


Yes, but the time window for overcooking is much longer than with traditional methods. For example, a medium-rare beef tenderloin remains perfectly cooked for at least 20 minutes after the minimum time. After that it will appear still medium-rare but slowly change its texture. Less delicate foods, such as a brisket can remain 12 hours longer than the minimum time without overcooking. Avoid cook times over 72 hours for food safety reasons.

What are the temperatures for various levels of doneness?


TEMPERATURE RANGES FOR MEAT: Rare 122-130F (50-54.4C) Medium-Rare 131-139F (55-59C) Medium 140-148F (60-64C) Medium Well 149-156F (65-69C) TEMPERATURE RANGES FOR FISH: Rare 104-108F (40-42C) Medium-Rare 118-125F (48-52C) Medium 136-140F (58-60C) TEMPERATURE RANGE FOR VEGETABLES: 183-190F (83-87C)
