Facility is correctly using the temperature logs. Explained the use of the infrared thermometer (get closer to the product for a surface temperature). Use the probe thermometers for internal temperatures. Facility is correctly using time in the front deli-case. Please continue the use of the charts to prevent hot holding violations. So long as you maintain control of the hot case - hot holding violations will not be issued. Risk control plan is complete. Good Job!
