George Foreman Grill - Cooking Times & Food Safety

4
cooking times & food safety
Use these times only as a guide. They’re for contact grilling fresh or fully defrosted
food. For frozen foods: add 2-3 minutes for seafood, or 3-6 minutes for meat and
poultry, depending on the thickness and density of the food. Check 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.
