Safe Grilling
Summer is starting in the Northern Hemisphere, and grills are being dusted off in readiness for a season of outdoor cooking. Just a few reminders to keep your cooking safe and healthy this grilling season:
* Always keep raw meats separate from other food even when cooking.
* Always use separate utensils for transferring the raw meat and handling the cooked meat.
* Never put cooked food on plates that held raw meat.
* Clean all cooking and eating utensils and work surfaces after use.
* Throw away barbecued food left out for more than two hours in very hot weather.
* Never part-cook on a barbecue and finish cooking later. However, you can fully cook meat and chicken at home, keep it chilled, and then barbecue it to add flavour. This is the ideal way to avoid undercooking your chicken portions on the barbecue.
