Fourth of July barbecue food safety: Grilling your burgers wrong could kill you this Independence Day - USA Today

With multiple food recalls from chicken nuggets and bagged salad to ground beef, you shouldn't skip grilling safety at your socially-distanced Fourth of July cookout.

Food safety experts, consumer groups and health officials have been stressing food safety precautions for years, particularly when recent recalls have again raised concerns about E. coli contamination.

In mid-June, nearly 43,000 pounds of ground beef, including packages sold at Walmart stores, were recalled because of possible E. coli. Four-pound bags of "Pilgrim's Fully Cooked Chicken Breast Nuggets" shipped to stores in four states also have been recalled.
