This temperature chart refers to information given by the USDA regarding safe internal meat cooking

temperatures. The USDA does not recommend any temperature less than 63°C/145°F as a safe temperature.

Chefs often cook some meats at lower temperatures to e.g. rare steak, lamb, tuna etc. If you wish to

try this at home you may find the following guidelines useful. Many recipes call for meat to be ‘rested’

after cooking, you may wish to take this into account according to your recipe.

The table below refers to cooking fresh cuts of meat (not ground meat). Poultry must be well cooked.
