Hi, I’ve grilled for years but have never figured out at what temperature food such as hamburgers, hotdogs, steaks, etc is grilled at? Generally, you take the food off the grill after you’ve poked the food with a stick! Thanks Dennis

 

Hi Dennis,

I don’t know much about the stick-poking method, but the best way to check for doneness is with an instant read thermometer. Burgers need to be cooked to 155°f, steaks between 125°f and 155°f depending on how you like them, chicken to 160°f for white meat and 180°f for dark meat and the hot dogs, well they’re pretty much done when you put them on.
