Cajun cooking, like any other, is subject to the same "safe preparation"
rules. Like most people I can't remember off the top of my head the safe
"done" temperatures of everything I cook. With that in mind I gathered
up the info that's important and consolidated it here for easy
reference. No one wants to get sick from food and cooking temps are one
factor that promotes food that is safe to consume.
All temperatures should be taken with a Meat Thermometer at the center
of the thickest part and away from the bone.
Because information like this is so critical, and may change, I am
directing you to the U.S. Dept. of Health & Human Services website for
cooking temperatures.

Note: Raw dressing should never be cooked in the meat (like a turkey).
When doing a stuffing always cook the dressing fully, then stuff the
meat with it.
Here is the Government web site for food safety. It has a ton of
information. Click
