FOOD experts are urging people to keep an extra cooking tool beside the barbie – a thermometer.
The idea is to check that burgers are safe from lethal food- poisoning bugs.
Researchers have revealed that even well-cooked burgers could still contain deadly strains, including the dreaded ecoli 0157.
Experts say that only food cooked to 70C is safe from all bugs. And the only way to check is by probing the meat with a thermometer.
