The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has warned of the potential health risks of a well-known and delicious tradition of grilling meat, which is related to adding a special ingredient to it to give it a distinctive taste.

And the control centers advise on their website never to put any juice, seasoning, sauce or any other liquid that touched raw meat on the food once you stop grilling, indicating that there are health risks from pouring the rest of the delicious seasoning over the fresh grilled meat.
The Centers for Disease Control stresses the need to “eliminate pickles and sauces that have come in contact with raw meat juices, because they can spread germs to cooked foods.”

It also urges to ensure that meat juices do not touch foods, utensils and other surfaces, and that people use completely clean utensils to remove food from the grill and then place it on a clean plate.

The agency confirms that the liquid that came into contact with raw meat is safe for use as long as it was cooked with the meat, and its temperature reached a sufficient degree to kill bacteria, and thus the liquid that leaks from it becomes “completely safe for consumption.” As for liquids that come into contact with raw meat, they pose a danger because they may carry the same It contains bacteria, so it must be handled with care.

According to the instructions of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, hands should be washed well after contact with meat or liquid, and not to be consumed unless it has been cooked at an appropriate temperature, and even try to contain it carefully to prevent the transmission of contamination it contains.

“Even a tiny amount of raw meat or its juices can lead to food poisoning,” Stephen Sokalsky, chief of infectious diseases and epidemiology at Advocate Crest Medical Center, confirms to the American “Chicago Tribune” newspaper.

Sokalsky pointed to an outbreak of Campylobacter bacteria among customers of a local American restaurant, which occurred because of a salad that was placed on a shelf under a container or raw chicken liver, and a little of its juice was dripping on it.
