What Temperature Should Slow Cooked Pork Be?
Slow cooked pork should reach an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) when measured with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat. It is important to allow the pork to rest on a cutting board for at least three minutes before slicing or serving. This temperature ensures that the pork is cooked thoroughly and is safe to eat, while still remaining juicy and tender.
