Yes, cooking meat at sufficiently high temperatures can kill E. coli bacteria. When meat is cooked thoroughly, the heat destroys harmful bacteria like E. coli, making the meat safe to eat. It’s important to cook meat to the recommended internal temperature to ensure that all bacteria, including E. coli, are killed. This helps prevent foodborne illnesses caused by consuming contaminated meat.
