4. Halibut

Halibut is another white fish that works great on the grill. The cooking temperature guidelines for halibut are the same as those for cod. Rare – 120°F (49°C); Medium-Rare – 130°F (54°C); Well-Done – 145°F (63°C).

5. Shrimp

Shrimp are small crustaceans that can be boiled, grilled, or sautéed. The cooking temperature guidelines for shrimp are the same as those for cod and halibut. Rare – 120°F (49°C); Medium-Rare – 130°F (54°C); Well-Done – 145°F (63°C).

Some people consider Lobster a delicacy. Lobster can be boiled or grilled, and the cooking temperature guidelines are the same as those for Shrimp. Rare – 120°F (49°C); Medium-Rare – 130°F (54°C); Well-Done – 145°F (63°C).

Using a food thermometer can help you ensure that your seafood is cooked just right. For the best reading, insert the thermometer in the thickest part of the fillet. Remember, the size and thickness of the fish, as well as the cooking method, can affect the final cooking time.

The best food thermometer will not prevent foodborne illnesses, though. For that, you must properly handle, store, and cook the seafood. While also following appropriate food-handling guidelines.
