Proper cold holding temperatures
Inspector’s notes
3-501.16 (A) (2) and (B) Time / Temperature Control for Safety Food; Hot and Cold Holding (P); Steak was being stored too highly in a prep top cooler and was up to 50F. Potentially hazardous food being held cold shall remain at 41F or below. CDI- Food was taken to closed refrigeration to be cooled before a 4 hour period elapsed.

Food was not kept cold enough, hot enough, cooled fast enough, or cooked or reheated to the right temperature. Bacteria grow quickly in the "danger zone" between 41°F and 135°F, which makes this one of the most important food-safety checks.
