Proper
placement
of the
probe
After preparing the meat and placing it on
a trivet or on the broiler pan grid, follow these
directions for proper probe placement.
1 Lay the probe on the outside of the meat along
the top or side and mark with your finger
where the edge of the meat comes to on the
probe. The point should rest in the center of
the thickest meaty part of the roast.
2 Insert the probe completely into the meat, up
to the handle. It should not touch the bone, fat
or gristle.
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into
the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in ham
or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the
lowest large muscle or joint.
Insert the probe into the center of dishes such
as meat loaf or casseroles. When cooking fish,
insert the probe from just above the gill into the
meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg
of a whole turkey.
