A steakhouse buys mechanically tenderized sirloin from its supplier. The chef wants to cook it like a regular steak to 145°F for 15 seconds. What should the manager say?

a.It must reach 155°F for 17 seconds, because the tenderizing needles can carry surface bacteria into the interior of the meat
b.It must reach 165°F for 15 seconds like poultry
c.It only needs 135°F because it will be hot-held
d.That is fine; tenderizing does not change the cooking requirement

Giải thích

Mechanically tenderized and injected meats are treated like ground meats and must reach 155°F for 17 seconds. The blades or needles used in tenderizing can push surface pathogens deep into the muscle, so the whole-muscle steak standard of 145°F no longer applies.
