Proper
placement
of the probe
After preparing the meat and placing it on
a trivet or on the broiler pan grid, follow these
directions for proper probe placement.
1 Lay the probe on the outside of the meat
along the top or side and mark with your
finger where the edge of the meat comes to
on the probe. The point should rest in the
center of the thickest meaty part of the roast.
2 Insert the probe completely into the meat,
up to the handle. It should not touch the
bone, fat or gristle.
For roasts with no bone, insert the probe into
the meatiest part of the roast. For bone-in ham
or lamb, insert the probe into the center of the
lowest large muscle or joint.
Insert the probe into the center of dishes such
as meat loaf or casseroles. When cooking fish,
insert the probe from just above the gill into
the meatiest area, parallel to the backbone.
Insert the probe into the meatiest part of the
inner thigh from below and parallel to the leg
of a whole turkey.
