HAZARD RATING FOR YOUR FACILITY: High (≥30) Total Score = 43
Critical Hazards: Total Number: 4
203 - Food not cooled in an acceptable manner [s. 12(a)]
Observation (CORRECTED DURING INSPECTION): One metal insert of cooked chicken thighs were measured to be 38.4C. Staff mentioned that they cooled down the chicken in 10 minutes and then tranferred the chicken into this metal insert, wrapped tightly in syran wrap. Repeat.
Corrective Action(s): Improper cooling noted. Demonstrated to staff onsite that chicken must be properly cooled down on flat metal tray (no aluminum foil lining) to 20C before you can transfer the food into the cooler to complete the remaining cooling process. Wrapping food in syran wrap does not allow hot air to escape and thus cannot cool down the food. Safe written procedure for this item has not been submitted to date. Submit a Food Safety Plan for this item in 1 week.
Violation Score: 5
