- Critical: Temperature, Cooking - Raw Animal Foods* (corrected on site)
Observation: The ground meat (hamburger) was not cooked to a sufficient temperature and time to eliminate pathogenic bacteria. Burgers with spots of pink/blood on them were only cooked to 150-153 degrees F. on the grill. These uncooked burgers were pulled off the grill and put in a hot holding container to serve to customers.
Correction: The undercooked burger were discarded. The grill cook time was increased by 2 seconds and the next hamburger cooked off the same grill was found to be 160 degrees F. Cook grounded meat to heat all parts to 155°F or above for 15 seconds or instantaneously at 158°F. Educate cooks on proper cooking temperatures and have them use thermometers to check burgers, especially when meat still appear to have pink spots. Serving under cooked burgers to customers could cause foodborne illness.
