Food Safety Tips<\/h3>\n

Food illness has lots of causes, but leaving food out too long is the primary foul. Most cases are caused by common bacteria such as E. coli, Salmonella, or Campylobacter.

    Keep it Clean<\/h3>\n
      \n
    • Wash your hands with soap and running water (warm or cold) for at least 20 seconds before preparing, eating, and handling food. Also wash your hands after using the bathroom and touching pets.<\/li>\n
    • Wash your cutting boards, dishes, utensils, and countertops with hot, soapy water after preparing each food item.<\/li>\n
    • Rinse produce under running water, including those with inedible skins and rinds. For firm-skin fruits and vegetables, rub by hand or scrub with a clean vegetable brush while rinsing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Keep it Safe and Avoid Cross-Contamination<\/h3>\n
        \n
      • If preparing food in advance, divide cooked food into shallow containers and store in a refrigerator or freezer until the party begins. This encourages rapid, even cooling\u2026and discourages pre-party nibblers.<\/li>\n
      • Separate raw meats from ready-to-eat foods like veggies when preparing, serving, or storing foods.<\/li>\n
      • Offer guests serving utensils and small plates to discourage them from eating directly from the bowls with dips and salsa.<\/li>\n
      • Getting takeout or delivery?<\/span> Make sure to keep hot foods hot, and cold foods cold.<\/li>\n
      • Hold hot foods at 140\u00b0F or warmer. Use chafing dishes, slow cookers, and warming trays to keep food hot on the buffet table.<\/li>\n
      • Maintain cold foods, like salsa and guacamole, at 40\u00b0F or colder. Use small service trays or nest serving dishes in bowls of ice, replacing ice often.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        <\/div>\n

        Cook to the Proper Temperature<\/h3>\n
          \n
        • Use a food thermometer to test Super Bowl party favorites, like chicken wings and ground beef sliders, and any other meat or microwaved dishes on your menu.<\/li>\n
        • Make sure chicken wings (and any other poultry) reach a minimum internal temperature of 165\u00b0F and that any ground beef sliders or burgers reach 160\u00b0F.<\/li>\n
        • Microwave leftovers to 165\u00b0F to get rid of harmful bacteria.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Safe Minimum Cooking Temperatures<\/h3>\n

          Refer to the Safe Minimum Cooking Temperatures chart below for the “rest time” of meats\u2014the period after cooking that some meats need to rest before serving to ensure that germs are killed. Note: Good news for your super-hungry guests: chicken wings and ground beef sliders don’t require rest times!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

          Watch the Time<\/h3>\n
            \n
          • Track the time that food stays on the buffet. Sideline any perishable foods that have been out at room temperature for two hours or more.<\/li>\n
          • Discard <\/span>any perishable foods on the buffet for two hours or more.<\/li>\n
          • Divide leftovers into smaller portions or pieces, place in shallow containers, and refrigerate.<\/li>\n
          • Leftover foods should be refrigerated at 40\u00b0F or below as soon as possible and within two hours of preparation. It’s OK to put hot foods directly into the refrigerator.<\/li>\n
          • Refrigerate leftovers for three to four days at most. Freeze them if you won’t be eating the leftovers sooner.<\/li>\n
          • Leftovers should be reheated to at least 165\u00b0F (74\u00b0C) before serving.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
