The internal temperature of sausage is an important factor in determining whether it is safe to eat. Here are the recommended temperatures for cooking sausage:

• Pork sausage: 160°F/71°C
• Chicken sausage: 165°F/74°C

It is important to note that the temperature should be measured at the core of the sausage, not just on the surface. To check the temperature, use a meat thermometer and insert it horizontally into the center of the sausage. The thermometer should read between 160°F and 170°F. It is also recommended to maintain this temperature range for at least 20 seconds to ensure that the meat is thoroughly cooked and safe to eat.
