What should the temperature of beef patties be at minimum for safety?

140°F
155°F
160°F
165°F

The correct answer is: 155°F

The minimum safe temperature for cooked beef patties is 160°F. This temperature is critical because it ensures that harmful bacteria, such as E. coli and Salmonella, are effectively killed, making the meat safe to consume. Cooking beef patties to this temperature also helps prevent foodborne illness, which is essential in a fast-food environment like McDonald's, where high volumes of food are prepared. While 155°F might reduce the risk of some bacteria, it does not provide the level of assurance needed for all types of harmful pathogens commonly associated with ground beef. Therefore, following the guideline of 160°F ensures maximum safety and compliance with food safety standards.
