Wash hands & work surface with hot, soapy water before
& after handling food.
Wait until guests have arrived before setting out the hot
& cold foods.
Keep hot foods hot & cold foods cold.
Always thaw meats, such as meatballs & wings, before
putting them into the slow cooker.
Use a food thermometer to be sure meat & poultry are
safely cooked.
Rotate foods throughout your party to help keep everything
at proper temperatures.
Arrange & serve food on several small platters rather
than on one large platter.
Keep foods cold by nesting dishes in bowls of ice.
Foods should not sit at room temperature for more than two
hours. Discard anything on the buffet
that has been out for more than two hours.
Freeze or refrigerate leftovers within two hours of
originally setting them out.
