Temperatures from Health Canada
You can't really tell if meat is cooked by its colour, only by its internal temperature.
A digital food thermometer is easy to use and once you are done with it, clean it with soapy water.
Using a food thermometer will help prevent food poisoning by making sure you never under cook your meat.
