dc.description.abstract |
Outbreaks of food-borne illness have
emphasized the need for proper cooking of
ground beef patties. Because of difficulties in
measuring internal temperature of ground beef
patties, visual indicators usually are used to
estimate degree of doneness. As internal
temperature increases from 130 to 170 ̊F, the
internal appearance is expected to change from
very red to brown and juice color from red to
clear. Based on ground beef patties from
three sources, we found that internal color
over-estimated internal temperature. Expressible
juice decreased in redness as internal
temperature increased but did not run clear
even at temperatures over 160 ̊F. Regardless,
expressible juice color was a better indicator
of degree of doneness than internal color. |
