185 thigh and 160 breast
130
160
190-205
140-150
never checked chicken wings
125-135 for rare
These are approximate pull temps and assume meat will rest for a period of time. Also, these temps could vary a bit according to a fork test for tenderness.
Much of this could be subjective according to a persons taste however I believe these temps to be safe. -
BBQ Boy....I must admit, I am a bit confused and concerned here.... There are very strict Federal guidelines when it comes to food safety when serving the public is involved...thus Food handlers licences for food safety are required, HACCP, Serv-Safe, etc.... Are you asking for recommended temps when serving yourself and family at home? Do you want restaurant temps, and holding temps and times?? I am a bit confused here. Please elaborate.
PS...Where is your restaurant? BBQ place? -

I am sorry. Let me clarify. I meet all regulations at my restaurant obviously.
What I am really asking is for the BGE. -
Same temps apply.

Thanks guys. -
