Pork internal temperature

145°F (62.8°C)

plus a 3-minute rest

Cook pork steaks, chops, and roasts to a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees F (62.8 degrees C) and allow to rest for at least 3 minutes.

Use a food thermometer to check whether the meat has reached a safe minimum internal temperature.
Measure the temperature before removing the food from the heat source.

USDA states safe minimum internal temperatures, not doneness styles.
