Inspector's notes

Observed bone-in fried chicken breasts with final internal cook temperatures measuring between 138-150*F when measured with a probe thermometer.

All raw animal proteins must reach a final cooking temperature based on the cooking parameters in § 3-401.11 of the Food Code. Advised PIC to cook large pieces separately or add to the fryer before adding other pieces. Discussed fryers may be overcrowded and unable to reach temperature on larger pieces.
