When you check the temperature of a meat dish in what part should place thermometer?

Here's why:

* Thickest part: This ensures the thermometer reads the temperature of the meat that takes the longest to cook through, giving you the most accurate reading.

* Avoiding bone and fat: Bone and fat conduct heat differently than muscle tissue, leading to inaccurate readings.

For example, if you're checking a chicken breast, insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the breast, making sure it doesn't touch the bone.
