How do I know when my meat is cooked properly

Sure! Here are three different ways to check if your meat is cooked properly:

**Use a Meat Thermometer**: The easiest way is to use a meat thermometer. For example, chicken should reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C), while beef can vary depending on how you like it cooked—medium rare is around 135°F (57°C).

**Check the Juices**: If you don’t have a thermometer, you can cut into the meat and check the juices. If they run clear, it’s usually a good sign that the meat is done. If they’re still pink or red, give it a bit more time.
