temperature
is the most effective
way of
insuring that your food
has been properly
cooked.
Your oven

to keep
warm
once
the probe
has reached
the set temperature.

or the pan.
For bone-in ham or lamb, insert the probe into the center
of the lowest large muscle or joint. For dishes such as
meat loaf or casseroles, insert the probe into the center of
the food. To find the center of the food visually
measure
with the probe

cooking
fish, insert the
probe
just above the gill.
