Meat Tips |
|
Print this Recipe If you love meat, you probably noticed the new types of beef and pork sold in supermarkets. Since more consumers are concerned about fat and cholesterol, animals are now being bred to be leaner. And while in the past you may have seen up to 1/2 inch of fat covering a beef or pork cut, today those same cuts will only have 1/8 to 1/4 inch of fat covering. For the fewest calories per serving, trim all visible fat before cooking and use lean-cooking methods such as broiling, pan broiling, roasting, grilling or microwaving. These leaner meats are more sensitive to cooking and especially to overcooking. Watch meats carefully and cook them just until tender or to the temperatures indicated. With less fat within the muscle tissue, even a few degrees over the specified temperature can overcook meats and cause them to toughen. To avoid any food safety problems, ground beef should be cooked to at least medium doneness (160°, which may be very slightly pink) or well-done (170°), whichever you prefer. The lower temperatures allow the leaner meats to retain their juiciness and tenderness. From "Betty Crocker's Best of Healthy & Hearty Cooking." Text Copyright 1998 General Mills, Inc.
