FOOD SAFETY
• Always wash your hands, counter and other surfaces in hot
soapy water after handling raw meats. Keep raw meats and
their juices away from other food and do not let them touch
ready-to-eat foods.
• Freshly ground meat should be refrigerated and cooked within
48 hours. Ground meats can be frozen for up to four months.
• Raw meat or fish should be well chilled (not frozen) before
grinding to reduce the loss of juices.
• When grinding large quantities of meat, fats from the meat can
build up in the grinder, slowing down the grinding efficiency.
If this happens, disassemble the grinder, wash the parts in hot
water and reassemble.
• Always wash your hands with warm water and soap for at least
20 seconds after handling raw meat or poultry. Keep your work
area clean and uncluttered. Wash countertops with a solution of
1 Teaspoon of chlorine bleach to 1 Qt of water. They are the most
effective at getting rid of bacteria.
• Always wash and sanitize cutting boards after using them for
raw foods. Consider using one cutting board only for foods that
will be cooked, such as meats and fish and another only for
vegetables, fruit and breads.
