cooking times
Use these times purely as a guide – they're for grilling fresh or fully defrosted food.

poultry, depending on the thickness and density of the food.

food safety
Whether grilling or griddling/barbecuing, check that the food is cooked through before
serving. If in doubt, cook it a bit more.
Cook meat, poultry, and any derivatives (mince, burgers, etc.) till the juices run clear. Cook fish
till the flesh is opaque throughout.
When cooking pre-packed foods, follow any guidelines on the package or label.
