03/22/2007InspectionRibs & Chicken breast found in Alto Shaam at 105 deg F - 112 deg F Ribs & chicken have been slow cooking in oven since night before; oven is supposed to automatically re-set to hot holding temp of 160 deg F as per owner/operator and head chef, however this does not appear to have happened: as per discussion with Senior sanitarian Jim Fouts, it was decided to rapidly reheat the meats to 165 deg F and return to hot holding of 140 deg F or higher (Alto Shaam turned to higher temp) since it was thought that Potential of bacteria growth is highly unlikely due to fact that meats have not been taken out of oven and not manipulated by food workers...
