USDA Lowers Minimum Temperature for Cooking Poultry
We have a new milestone, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) has lowered its recommended minimum temperature for cooking poultry, that’s the internal temp they’ve lowered.
After all the long years of recommending a cooking temp of 180 F for your turkey, the new cooking temperature the USDA is advocating is 165 F. With all that said, this basically just means that for your safety, the bird needs to reach a temperature of 165 F in the innermost part of the thigh & wings as well as the thickest part of the breast.
This is excellent news for bFeedMe readers, as we just went over how to roast the perfect Thanksgiving turkey, and now with this new temp change, your bird is going to be as juicy as an October apple this year!
