Broiling
guide
The size, weight,
thickness, starting
temperature and
your preference of
doneness will affect
broiling times. This
guide is based on
meats at refrigerator
temperature.
† The U.S. Department of
Agriculture says "Rare beef
is popular, but you should
know that cooking it to only
140°F means some food
poisoning organisms may
survive. " (Source: Safe Food
Book. Your Kitchen Guide.
USDA Rev. June 1985.)
