Employee Benefits. At Professional Concepts Insurance Agency our goal is to lower your overall cost of benefit programs and drive more dollars to your bottom line through strategic planning and employee education. We understand that after payroll, employee benefit programs are the next costliest programs to employers â a fact often unbeknown to employees themselves.
In addition, the acidity of the hamburger meat can also vary, with higher-acid burgers more prone to have a persistent pink color.âSome ground beef can stay pink even after it has reached 160 degrees,â McCurdy said. âAnd some ground beef can turn brown before it has reached that temperature.â.
Ground beef should always be cooked to 160Â°F. Because ground beef is ground and mixed, bacteria may be found anywhere within the patty (not just on the surface like in a steak or roast). To make sure all those bacteria are killed, you need to cook your burger to 160Â°F and check the temperature with a meat thermometer!
