Outdoor cooking season is here
Every summer, urgent care centers see their share of patients who suffer with some type of food
poisoning. Most people realize the dangers of undercooked food, or food that
has been mishandled, but did you know that overcooked or over-charred food can
be just as dangerous? Over charring or burning meat causes a chemical reaction
that is unhealthy, even dangerous. Consider the following tips to prevent dangerously overcooked foods:
- Avoid excessive burn marks
- Use lean meat
- Cut before you cook
- Marinate your meat
- Cook more vegetables
