The cooking times shown below are for medium-rare to medium doneness. For beef, a meat thermometer should read 145° for medium-rare, 160° for medium and 170° for well-done.

Veal is done when a meat thermometer reads 160° for medium and 170° for well-done. Ground beef and veal should be 160°. For direct grilling, turn meat halfway through grilling time.
